Company I work for will be investing some money into a search engine soon that will parse search results from multiple vendor sites and put them into one table that can be worked with. For example a search for part "1234" will search sites A, B, C, D and etc and output search results from all of the sites in the same table. Kinda like what dogpile.com is, but only for a certain category of products.

Now here's an idea that I got from my boss :

Create such a modification client side that would allow multiple input queries. For example i make a list first

Part #'s

1234
2313
23456
12343
etc

and submit this list to a search engine. The search engine would reply with a list of parts parsed from vendor searches. THe list can be manually inputed or imported from a CSV or TXT

In programmer/coder speak is there a term for such an engine? Can someone provide some links on this being utilized?
