In this paper, the design and development of Computer Assisted Information
Resources Navigation (CAIRN) is discussed. CAIRN system is a medical information
retrieval system that allows physicians and students to store full text medical information
from any resource, organize and retrieve it. The most important feature of CAIRN is its
capability to assist the user, physician, student etc. in selecting documents against a
submitted query in Natural Language. The retrieved documents are presented in
decreasing order according to their similarity to the submitted query. The nearest
neighbour method is used. An alternative similarity measure based on a new calculation of
the length of documents is proposed and some experimentation with it is discussed.
