Master Objects sues Microsoft over instant search
SOFTWARE COMPANY Master Objects has sued Microsoft for allegedly infringing its patent relating to instant search.
Master Objects alleges that its founder, Mark Smit solved the problem of the so-called "request-response loop", which was the traditional approach used by search engines.
