     Zebra is born as a networking Information Retrieval engine adhering
     to the international standards 
     <ulink url="&url.z39.50;">Z39.50</ulink> and
     <ulink url="&url.sru;">SRU</ulink>,
     and implement the 
     <literal>type-1 Reverse Polish Notation (RPN)</literal> query
     model defined there.
     Unfortunately, this model has only defined a binary
     encoded representation, which is used as transport packaging in
     the Z39.50 protocol layer. This representation is not human
     readable, nor defines any convenient way to specify queries. 
    </para>
    <para>
     Since the <literal>type-1 (RPN)</literal> 
     query structure has no direct, useful string
     representation, every origin application needs to provide some
     form of mapping from a local query notation or representation to it.
     </para>


   <sect3 id="querymodel-query-languages-pqf">
    <title>Prefix Query Format (PQF)</title>

   <para>
     Index Data has defined a textual representaion in the 
     <literal>Prefix Query Format</literal>, short
     <literal>PQF</literal>, which mappes 
      <literal>one-to-one</literal> to binary encoded  
      <literal>type-1 RPN</literal> query packages.
      It has been adopted by other
      parties developing Z39.50 software, and is often referred to as
     <literal>Prefix Query Notation</literal>, or in short 
     <literal>PQN</literal>. See       
     <xref linkend="querymodel-pqf"/> for further explanaitions and

     Zebra supports all of the three different
     <literal>Z39.50/SRU</literal> operations defined in the
     standards: <literal>explain</literal>, <literal>search</literal>, 
     and <literal>scan</literal>. A short description of the
     functionality and purpose of each is quite in order here.

     <title>Explain Operation</title>
     <para>
      The <emphasis>syntax</emphasis> of Z39.50/SRU queries is
      well known to any client, but the specific
      <emphasis>semantics</emphasis> - taking into account a
      particular servers functionalities and abilities - must be
      discovered from case to case. Enters the 
      <literal>explain</literal> operation, which provides the means
      for learning which  
      <emphasis>fields</emphasis> (also called
      <emphasis>indexes</emphasis> or <emphasis>access points</emphasis>
      are provided, which default parameter the server uses, which
      retrieve document formats are defined, and which specific parts
      of the general query model are supported.      
     </para>
     <para>
      The Z39.50 embeddes the <literal>explain</literal> operation
      by perfoming a

      structure defined by the protocol.
     </para>
     <para>
      In both cases, the information gathered through

    <sect3 id="querymodel-operation-type-search">
     <title>Search Operation</title>
     <para>
      Search and retrieve interactions are the raison d'être. 
      They are used to query the remote database and
      return search result documents.  Search queries span from
      simple free text searches to nested complex boolean queries,
      targeting specific indexes, and possibly enhanced with many
      query semantic specifications. Search interactions are the heart
      and soul of Z39.50/SRU servers.

     <para>
      It provides
      the means to investigate the content of specific indexes.
      Scanning an index returns a handfull of terms actually fond in
      the indexes, and in addition the <literal>scan</literal>
      operation returns th enumber of documents indexed by each term.
      A search client can use this information to propose proper
      spelling of search terms, to auto-fill search boxes, or to

     <para>     
      Filter the adressing XPath by a predicate working on exact
      string values in
      attributes (in the XML sense) can be done: return all those docs which
      have the term "english" contained in one of all text subnodes of
      the subtree defined by the XPath
      <literal>/record/title[@lang='en']</literal>. And similar
      predicate filtering.
      <screen>
       Z> find @attr 1=/record/title[@lang='en'] english
       Z> find @attr 1=/link[@creator='sisse'] sibelius
       Z> find @attr 1=/link[@creator='sisse']/description[@xml:lang='da'] sibelius 
      </screen>
     </para>
     
     <para>     
      Combining numeric indexes, boolean expressions, 
      and xpath based searches is possible:
      <screen>
       Z> find @attr 1=/record/title @and foo bar
       Z> find @and @attr 1=/record/title foo @attr 1=4 bar
      </screen> 
     </para>
     <para>
      Escaping PQF keywords and other non-parseable XPath constructs
      with <literal>'{ }'</literal> to prevent syntax errors:
      <screen>
       Z> find @attr {1=/root/first[@attr='danish']} content
       Z> find @attr {1=/record/@set} oai
      </screen>
     </para>
     <warning>
      It is worth mentioning that these dynamic performed XPath
      queries are a performance bottelneck, as no optimized
      specialized indexes can be used. Therefore, avoid the use of
      this facility when speed is essential, and the database content
      size is medium to large.

     The Term Set feature is a facility that allows a search to store

     By setting a limit for the APT we can make Zebra turn into
     approximate hit count when a certain hit count limit is
     reached. A value of zero means exact hit count.

     For example, we might be intersted in exact hit count for a, but

     The estimated hit count fascility makes searches faster, as one
     only needs to process large hit lists partially.

    <warning>
     This facility clashes with rank weight, because there all
     documents in the hit lists need to be examined for scoring and

    <para>
     If the first character of the <literal>Regxp-2</literal> query
     is a plus character (<literal>+</literal>) it marks the
     beginning of a section with non-standard specifiers.
     The next plus character marks the end of the section.
     Currently Zebra only supports one specifier, the error tolerance,
     which consists one digit. 
    </para>

    <para>
     Since the plus operator is normally a suffix operator the addition to
     the query syntax doesn't violate the syntax for standard regular
     expressions.
    </para>

    <para>
     For example, a phrase search with regular expressions  in
     the title-register is performed like this:
     <screen>
      Z> find @attr 1=4 @attr 5=102 "informat.* retrieval"
     </screen>
    </para>

    <para>
     Combinations with other attributes are possible. For example, a
     ranked search with a regular expression:
     <screen>
      Z> find @attr 1=4 @attr 5=102 @attr 2=102 "informat.* retrieval"
     </screen>
    </para>

   <para>
    The RecordType parameter in the <literal>zebra.cfg</literal> file, or
    the <literal>-t</literal> option to the indexer tells Zebra how to
    process input records.
    Two basic types of processing are available - raw text and structured
    data. Raw text is just that, and it is selected by providing the
    argument <literal>text</literal> to Zebra. Structured records are
    all handled internally using the basic mechanisms described in the
    subsequent sections.
    Zebra can read structured records in many different formats.

   <title>Server Side CQL to PQF Query Translation</title>
   <para>
    Using the
    <literal>&lt;cql2rpn&gt;l2rpn.txt&lt;/cql2rpn&gt;</literal>
      YAZ Frontend Virtual
    Hosts option, one can configure
    the YAZ Frontend CQL-to-PQF
    converter, specifying the interpretation of various 
    <ulink url="&url.cql;">CQL</ulink>
    indexes, relations, etc. in terms of Type-1 query attributes.
    <!-- The  yaz-client config file -->  
   </para>
   <para>
    For example, using server-side CQL-to-PQF conversion, one might
    query a zebra server like this:
    <screen>
    <![CDATA[
     yaz-client localhost:9999
     Z> querytype cql
     Z> find text=(plant and soil)
     ]]>
    </screen>
     and - if properly configured - even static relevance ranking can
     be performed using CQL query syntax:
    <screen>
    <![CDATA[
     Z> find text = /relevant (plant and soil)
     ]]>
     </screen>
   </para>

   <para>
    By the way, the same configuration can be used to 
    search using client-side CQL-to-PQF conversion:
    (the only difference is <literal>querytype cql2rpn</literal> 
    instead of 
    <literal>querytype cql</literal>, and the call specifying a local
    conversion file)
    <screen>
    <![CDATA[
     yaz-client -q local/cql2pqf.txt localhost:9999
     Z> querytype cql2rpn
     Z> find text=(plant and soil)
     ]]>
     </screen>
   </para>

    Section "Specification of CQL to RPN mappings" in the YAZ manual.
