Abstract: A method for determining whether a text complies with a query, an apparatus and a computer program product, the method comprising: obtaining a macro comprising a plurality of representations of a query; and executing the macro against a database comprising a simplified representation of at least one phrase within the text, to determine 10 whether the text complies with any of the representations of the query. The simplified representation is presented in the form of: conferrer (carrier; bearer; substrate; descriptor) and provides information pertaining to who, what, when and how with respect to the text associated with the simplified representation.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product, the method comprising: initiating a first task executor configured to: initiating a first task executor; determining whether sufficient resources are available for performing a task; detecting whether there are data items from a batch upon which the task is to be executed, wherein the data items are not being handled and not processed; subject to detecting the data items, and determining sufficient resources are available, initiating a second task executor configured as the first; selecting a data item; marking the data item as being handled; processing the data item comprising calling an external function for processing, wherein usage of the external function is priced by a number of calls; and terminating upon any one of the following: receiving an indication that the external function has completed or failed; a predetermined time passed since the data item was transmitted; or multiple task executors exist.

Abstract: A computer program method enables a user to find the most relevant documents by searching of distributed databases, i.e., the World Wide Web. The program employs the user's profile, based on the user's foci of interest, the user's query and a semantic analysis of the query and documents. In one embodiment, the retrieved documents are ranked according to relevancy based on the user's profile and query.
