The volume of website information accumulates rapidly, and thus, search engines are indispensable. The main user demand from the search engine is to efficiently retrieve accurate and relevant results. This thesis presents a new and improved search engine called Intelligent Voice Driven Intranet Search Engine (AIVDISE) which accepts natural language queries. AIVDISE can be used to search a personal or business website, e.g. Acadia's website. As input, AIVDISE can accept both spoken and typed English language sentences. Together with a number of uniquely powerful search engine technologies, AIVDISE can deliver the accuracy people want from their intranet search engine without the need for expert training in search techniques.
