Abstract

DIALOG's new RANK command is more powerful than ORBIT's GET command. Studies examples of how to use the RANK command (competitive analysis, locating experts and improving search results). Explains how to use RANK to select search terms and identify journal titles. Provides the example of identifying local public health problems and control methods in areas most threatened with tubercolosis from the PAPERS OneSearch category
