Abstract: As a user navigates a web site, a system can formulate or allow the user to formulate a query. The system can automatically expand the query to include additional keywords that were not present in the original query. The system can search a database using the expanded query to identify a set of information objects, each having at least one keyword that is present in the expanded query. The database may include a plurality of database tables, each describing a keyword hierarchy. A hierarchy may correspond to a subject matter category addressed by the information object. Another hierarchy may correspond to a project phase addressed by the information object. Still another hierarchy may correspond to the role or intended audience of the information object. The set of information objects thus identified can be displayed on a client computer where the user can see the results.

Abstract: The present invention can include a data processing system-implemented method or a data processing system readable media having software code for carrying out the method. The method can comprise formulating queries, searching for a plurality of information objects, or a combination thereof. In a specific embodiment, an original query with at least one keyword can be automatically expanded to an expanded query that includes at least one keyword that is not in the original query. The expanded query may be used to search for information objects that are relevant to the expanded query.
