The first Text REtrieval Conference (TREC-1) was held at NIST. The conference, co -sponsored by ARPA and NIST, brought togetehr information retrieval researchers to discuss their system results on a new large test collection (The TIPSTER collection). The overall goal of the TREC initiative is to encourage research in information retrieval using large-scale test collections. The second TREC conference (TREC-2) occured in August 1993. In addition to 22 of the TREC-1 groups, nine new groups took part, bringing the total number of participating groups to 31. This paper provides an overview of the TREC-2 conference, including a review of the TREC task, a brief description of the test collection being used, and an overview of the results. The paper from the individual groups should be referred to for more details on specific system approaches.
