The Terabyte Retrieval Track of the Text REtrieval Conference (TREC) provides an opportunity to test retrieval techniques and evaluation methodologies in the context of a terabyte-scale corpus. Given the size of the corpus, the track also provides a vehicle for participants to investigate query and indexing speeds. This brief summary outlines track activities to date and previews our plans for TREC 2005. For complete information, the reader should consult the full version of this report [1].
