Analysis

A: I serve as an internet product manager at Huawei, primarily responsible for the development of our global search software. Huawei’s mobile universal search offers a fast, intelligent way to search by integrating both internal and external information resources, allowing users to quickly find apps, files, contacts, and web content, enhancing both life and work efficiency. A: There are two main differences. Firstly, the search scope and targets—universal search is typically limited to the device or a specified network range, accessing local files and app data, while traditional search engines cover the entire internet, providing resources from various websites. Secondly, the search methods and experience—universal search offers a streamlined interface and quick responses, often supporting voice and image searches to improve user experience, unlike traditional engines that provide complex algorithms and varied search options. In terms of speed, our instant response capabilities mean that as soon as a user types in a keyword, the system quickly returns relevant results, significantly reducing wait times. For accuracy, we use AI to analyse user behaviour deeply, allowing intelligent sorting of search results based on history and preferences. Additionally, our support for multi-modal searches, like voice and image recognition, helps locate precise information more efficiently.

Key Points

  • Li highlights the unique search scope and personalised methods of Huawei’s universal search software, distinguishing it from traditional search engines.
  • He outlines how optimised algorithms and AI technology enhance search speed and accuracy, offering users instant responses and intelligent sorting.
  • Li addresses data security, discussing encryption and isolation strategies to protect user data during extensive information processing.
