Features: The world is rapidly transitioning from the "Information Age" to the "Information Economy Age" through the internet. Information once considered valuable is now heading towards "garbageification." Only by solving the issues of information filtering, processing, purification, and mining, and by discovering true knowledge from the vast, garbage-like information, can value be enhanced. The focus of the internet has gradually shifted from networking, communication, and content to search and search value-added services. A "search revolution" is underway, impacting not only search but the entire internet.
