Moreover, cross hnguage Information Retrieval (CLIR) systems are widely used recently due to the explosion of non- documents. However, the lack of such a collection to be used in CLIR which deals with Persian retrieval is a big drawback in researches in this field This paper describes a 90MB Persian-English collection which contains 7073 documents generated fiom Wikipedia, an open encyclopedia, web site and is represented in XML format.
