Our own evolution depends largely on this iterative process, where each iteration is based on these records. The advent of the web and its attractiveness highly increased the availability of information which rapidly becomes ubiquituos. However, the lack of editorial control originates high heterogeneity in several ways. The traditional information retrieval techniques face new, challenging problems and prove to be inefficient to deal with web characteristics.
