dc.description.abstract | We present a model that describes which fraction of the literature on a certain topic we will find when we use n(n=1,2,...)databases. It is a generalization of the theory of discovering usability problems. We prove that, in all practical cases, this fraction is a concave function of n, the number of used databases, hereby explaining some graphs that exist in the literature. We also study limiting features of this fraction for n very high and we characterize the case that we find all literature on a certain topic for n high enough. | - |
