Abstract

A Meta Search Engine (MSE) produces results gathered from other search engine (SE) on a given query. In brief MSEs have single interface corresponding to multiple searches. MSE employs their own algorithm to display search results. This paper reviews existing Meta Search Engines like Yippy, eTools.ch, Carrot2, qksearch and iBoogie commonly used for searching. This paper surveys and analysed the working of different result merging algorithms. Current research reviews MSE based on different approaches like clustering technique. Few MSEs are employing Neural networks for searching. Further it also discusses problem in existing MSEs.
