Researching
the Web
COSC 120 -- MWF 2:00
Greg Duncan
1) The academic topic that I selected was Computer Graphics.
2) The keywords that I thought would be best were a) Graphics
and b)
Computer.
3) Research results:
a) Google advanced:
Search
limiters were w/o "free" , domain = edu
Best URL was
http://mambo.ucsc.edu/psl/cg.html
, which met all criteria.
b) Deep Web search:
Types
of
searches conducted were: pdf and xls as domain.
No matches were found in
either
search.
c) Alternate Search Engine:
I used
Profusion, Wisenut, and FastSearch.
FastSearch provided the
best
results, however, there were many like matches in all of
the engines.
The URL of the best
resource, once
again, was http://mambo.ucsc.edu/psl/cg.html
d) Reviewed Website Search:
I
searched the following directories: Bubl, Scout, and FSU.
Unfortunately, I found no relevant
results in
any of
these resources.
