Suggestion:

Queries will be passed as parameters to the search URI.  Valid query parameters are as follows:

    keyword=some_keyword
        Search only keywords for given keyword
    metadata=free_text
        Search all metadata for given free text
    resourceType=protocol|data
        Limit search to either protocol or data.  All resource types are searched if omitted.
    timeModified=epoch-epoch
        Limit search to give time period.  Times must be represented as seconds since the epoch.
        timeModified=0 - all times equal to and after the value.
        timeModified=-11111111 - all times up to and including the value.
        timeMOdified=1234-11111111 - all times inclusive of value range.
