search} that combines four distinct areas of mathematical knowledge.
These four kinds being (1)~the actual formulae as \emph{symbolic
knowledge}, (2)~examples and concrete objects as \emph{concrete
knowledge}, (3)~names and comments as \emph{narrative knowledge} and
knowledge}, (3)~prose, names and comments as \emph{narrative knowledge} and
finally (4)~identifiers, references and their relationships, referred
to as \emph{organizational knowledge}~\cite{tetra}.
Tetrapodal search aims to provide a unified search engine that indexes
each of these four different subsets of mathematical knowledge.
Because all four kinds of knowledge are inherently unique in their
structure, tetrapodal search proposes that each kind of mathematical
structure, tetrapodal search proposes that each subset of mathematical
knowledge should be made available in a storage backend that fits the
kind of data it is providing. With all four areas available for
querying, tetrapodal search intends to then combine the four indexes

A previously proposed way to structure organizational knowledge is the
