A search engine developed by HotWired and HotBot exploits NOW (Network of Workstations) parallel computing technology, to achieve scalable, supercomputer-class performance from clusters of reliable, commodity workstations and high-speed local-area networks (LANS). This NOW technology enables a low-cost system, with unlimited scalability: we can increase the performance or database size simply by adding more commodity building blocks (machines, disks, or memory) to the collection. We are not constrained by server chassis or backplane limits, or forced to replace hardware with newer, higher cost servers, to scale with the rapid growth of the Internet. Search Tip - The best way to get the most out of a search engine is to understand its features. Always check the sites help page when you arrive to find out what it's features are. Be Specific: If you are looking for information about the 'Virginia state motto', enter all three of those words in your search. A search for just 'Virginia motto' will give you more than 600 pages that you don't want. Use phrases: You can narrow your search further by specifying that the phrase "state motto" must also appear. Do this by using the pop-up menus in the 'modify' options, or by enclosing the phrase in double quotes (""). |
