In information retrieval, the common information retrieval model is by using traditional simple query as the query task. An important issue is that most query language use the context and the structure of the text to find relevant documents. In that sense, the system may fail to find relevant answer in order to get the appropriate document. Beside that, limitation of traditional query can result in losing a lot of the relevant dociunent. But, using thesaurus techniques in searching, it will find the words that contain the same meaning with user query. Using thesaurus can help user to get the result in shorter time.
