Enhanced Ranking Based Cloud Searching with Improved Metadata Storage: A Case Study for Relevancy of Files
Rajpreet kaur, Manish Mahajan · International Journal of Modern Education and Computer Science · 2016
With the outgrowth of cloud computing, a large amount of private information is stored over cloud servers, which is in encrypted format.But searching over encrypted data is very difficult.Earlier search schemes were based on Boolean search through keywords.But don't consider relevance of files.After that ranked search comes into its role, which uses searchable symmetric encryption (SSE).To achieve more practical and efficient design method was further modified to "Order preserving symmetric encryption" (OPSE), which uses primitives and indexed metadata files used in ranked SSE.In this proposed work further enhancements are done to reduce storage space for encrypted metadata using Porter Stemming method.Improvements in retrieval time are also done by using Boyer Moore's searching algorithm.
