Patent number: 10592573Abstract: A computer-implemented method for suggesting character-combinations and one or more uniform resource locators in response to receiving a query prefix as input. The method includes receiving a query prefix as input, the query prefix being a character or character-combination. Character-combinations that completely or partially match the query prefix and are different from the query prefix are identified from a repository. The repository stores multiple pairs, each pair containing a character-combination and a list of identifiers pointing to network locations determined to be most relevant to the character-combination. One or more uniform resource locators are identified from the repository that have characters that completely or partially match the query prefix. The identified character-combinations and the one or more uniform resource locators are then suggested to a user.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2017Date of Patent: March 17, 2020Assignee: Google LLCInventor: Masanori Harada
