Memex

Abstract

The Memex program developed search technologies to revolutionize the discovery, organization, and presentation of domain-specific content. Earlier search technologies were limited in search query format, retrieved content organization, and infrastructure support, and they imposed an iterative search process that was time-consuming and inefficient, producing only a fraction of the available information. Memex created a new domain-specific search paradigm that discovers relevant content and organizes it in ways that are more immediately useful to specific missions and tasks. In addition, Memex domain-specific search engines extend the reach of current search capabilities to the deep web and non-traditional content. Memex technologies enable the military, government, and commercial enterprises to find and organize mission-critical information on the Internet and in large intelligence repositories. Mission areas addressed by Memex included counter-terrorism, counter-drug, anti-money-laundering, and anti-human-trafficking, with transition partners from DoD and other U.S. Government activities.
