of interest. The main issues in the indexing include: (i) the selection and
collection process articles data, (ii) the management of indexing based on

layers are the data collection layer, storage layer, and service layer. The
functionality of the first layer is IPI collaboration with publishers, the
second layer is the index management system, the third layer is a service to
