Abstract

Due to the exponential growth of Internet it is very important to have good knowledge structures that let to obtain good results in Web search. The aim of this work is to discover the user tendencies when they use the search engines and to know the limitations of the knowledge structures that GUMSe uses. With this information is possible to design a more efficient system. For this reason, it is analyzed the set of keywords and queries more frequently used in the search engines and how WordNet manage it. This information is very useful to avoid bad situations in our meta-search engine.
