Karen Spärck Jones is one of the major figures of 20th century and early 21st Century
computing and information processing. Her ideas have had an important influence on
the development of Internet Search Engines. Her contribution has been recognized by
awards from the natural language processing, information retrieval and artificial
intelligence communities, including being asked to present the prestigious Grace Hopper
lecture. She continues to be an active and influential researcher. Her contribution
to the scientific evaluation of the effectiveness of such computer systems has been
quite outstanding. This book celebrates the life and work of Karen Spärck Jones in
her seventieth year. It consists of fifteen new and original chapters written by leading
international authorities reviewing the state of the art and her influence in the
areas in which Karen Sparck Jones has been active. Although she has a publication
record which goes back over forty years, it is clear even the very early work reviewed
in the book can be read with profit by those working on recent developments in information
processing like bioinformatics and the semantic web
