http://ir.dcs.gla.ac.uk/terrier/

Terrier 2.0, the next version of the open source IR platform from the
University of Glasgow (Scotland) has been released.

This is a major update, which integrates a new faster indexing
architecture contributed by the University of A Coruna (Spain). Other
enhancements include the new Divergence From Randomness weighting model
(DFRee) from Fondazione Ugo Bordoni (Italy) which provides robust
performance without the need for any parameter tuning.
