Domain Resources Integrated System (DRIS), a distributed information search system developed by Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST), will be able to replace Internet search engines Google and Yahoo!, Wang Liang HUST researcher told Sina. DRIS allows users to search Internet resources on web pages or in databases. In addition to basic search services, DRIS is able to work with external collaborative software and offer customized search functions. Once integrated with the Internet, the system will be able to provide tailored search solutions to any user. HUST hopes DRIS will eventually become an extension of domain name service and part of the wider Internet infrastructure.
