Information retrieval system, registration apparatus for indexes for information retrieval, information retrieval method and program
First Claim
1. An information retrieval system comprising:
- an information acquisition unit that acquires a document from a storage device;
a time information specifying unit that specifies a time at which the document was acquired from the storage device;
an index updating unit that either creates a new index or updates an existing index from among a plurality of indexes to register the acquired document;
an addition unit from backup that acquires a backup document from a backup information storage device;
a first index corresponding to a first time range and having registered therein a first document; and
a second index corresponding to a second time range, which is prior to the first time range, and having a registered therein the first document,wherein in response to receiving a request to delete the first document, the information retrieval system deletes the first document from the first index and does not delete the first document from the second index,wherein the index updating unit registers the acquired document and the acquired backup document to the new index or to the existing index based on the time information specified by said time information specifying unit, andwherein the backup information storage device stores backup data of the storage device.
