PRECIS is outdated. There are a few semantic indexing techniques such as B Tree etc.

Dear mam,

For the examination point of view, I had furnished the facts about indexing system.PRECIS is one of the information retrieval technique,about which the questions are asked in NET/SET EXAM.

It is correct. Your response is based on the syllabus which is totally obsolete and outdated. LIS syllabus fails to reflect the newer techniques in IR. Unfortunately we have been accessing old and outdated knowledge.
