Abstract

This paper surveys research on enabling keyword search in relational databases. We present fundamental characteristics and discuss research dimensions, including data representation, ranking, efficient processing, query representation, and result presentation. Various approaches for developing the search system are described and compared within a common framework. We discuss the evolution of new research strategies to resolve the issues associated with probabilistic models, efficient top-k query processing, and schema analysis in relational databases.
