ABSTRACT:
A computer-implemented method provides for receiving via a processor a query of at least two terms, presenting a node for each term in a graphical display, positioning a cursor in the graphical display, displaying a list of results, repositioning a cursor in the graphical display based on a user input, and displaying a new list of results based on the relative weightings of at least one term associated with its node in a new processing of the query. The method also provides for receiving via a processor a query, presenting a plurality of nodes in a graphical display where each node is associated with a search engine, displaying results from processing the query using the search engine associated with the nodes, repositioning a cursor in the graphical display, and displaying a new list of results where repositioning the cursor changes the relative weightings of the search engine associated with its node.
