inverted index：In computer science, an inverted index (also referred to as postings file or inverted file) is an index data structure storing a mapping from content, such as words or numbers, to its locations in a database file, or in a document or a set of documents (named in contrast to a Forward Index, which maps from documents to content).[1]

倒排索引：应该是翻译的锅了… … 感觉叫反向索引可能更好一点。
常规的索引是文档到关键词的映射：文档——>关键词
倒排索引是关键词到文档的映射：关键词——>文档
之所以这么干是想通过关键词方便快捷地找到相关的文档，是搜索引擎的重要基础技术。

关于inverted index的具体原理，这个里面讲得比较清楚。
