For ranking sentences, this algorithm basically consists of.

- Finding links between sentences by looking for overlapping terminology
- Using Google Pagerank on the sentence network to rank sentences in order of importance

For finding keywords, this algorithm basically consists of.

- Extract words following one another to construct a word network
- Using Google Pagerank on the word network to rank words in order of importance
- Constructing keywords - which are the combination of relevant words identified by the Pagerank algorithm which follow each other
