  • Patent number: 5299123
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method of adding a number of search terms that express syntax and semantics for an enterprise of related users to a document in a Document Interchange Architecture (DIA) Library. The enterprise related search terms are combined with specially architected DIA search terms and are made available to mechanisms used to search for documents in a shared library. The enterprise related search terms are first identified and placed in enterprise sub-profiles accessible to index build mechanisms. Associated search terms tables are created and made available to the index build mechanisms. Search indexes are created containing the enterprise unique search terms along with the DIA architected terms. The search indexes are then stored with the related documents in the Document Interchange Architecture Library and made available to search mechanisms for locating the document in the shared library.
