Abstract
This project aims to overcome language and technology barriers to acquiring information through the Internet. We intend to invent new techniques to simplify internet search processes by developing a natural language search engine, technology to facilitate cross language search (Chinese and English), and technology that would enable elementary mobile devices to search the internet. Is it possible to enable 580 million Chinese cell phone users to search the Internet without actually being on the Internet? For instance a cell phone user sends a query via a short message to our search engine, and the answer is sent back as a short message.
