Abstract
The advent of the World Wide Web made search engines the most essential component of our everyday life. However, the analysis of information provided by current search engines often presents a significant challenge to the client. This is to a large extent because the client has to deal with many alternatives (solutions) described by contradictory criteria, when selecting the most preferable (optimal) solutions. Furthermore, criteria constraints cannot be defined a priori and have to be defined interactively in the process of a dialog of the client with computer. In such situations, construction of the feasible solution set has a fundamental value. In this paper, we propose a new methodology for systematically constructing the feasible solution set for database search. This allows to significantly improving the quality of search results.
