Web Caching and Zipf-like Distributions: Evidence and Implications
- IN INFOCOM
, 1999
"... This paper addresses two unresolved issues about web caching. The first issue is whether web requests from a fixed user community are distributed according to Zipf's law [22]. Several early studies have supported this claim [9], [5], while other recent studies have suggested otherwise [16], [2] ..."

- ular, the question is whether these properties are inherent to web accesses or whether they are simply an artifact of the traces. An answer to these unresolved issues will facilitate both web cache resource planning and cache hierarchy design
Evaluating Top-k Queries over Web-Accessible Databases
- ACM TRANS. ON DATABASE SYSTEMS
, 2004
"... ... In this article, we study how to process top-k queries efficiently in this setting, where the attributes for which users specify target values might be handled by external, autonomous sources with a variety of access interfaces. We present a sequential algorithm for processing such queries, but ..."

, but observe that any sequential top-k query processing strategy is bound to require unnecessarily long query processing times, since web accesses exhibit high and variable latency. Fortunately, web sources can be probed in parallel, and each source can typically process concurrent requests, although sources
Mfold web server for nucleic acid folding and hybridization prediction
- Nucleic Acids Res
, 2003
"... The abbreviated name,‘mfold web server’,describes a number of closely related software applications available on the World Wide Web (WWW) for the prediction of the secondary structure of single stranded nucleic acids. The objective of this web server is to provide easy access to RNA and DNA folding ..."

Data Preparation for Mining World Wide Web Browsing Patterns
- KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS
, 1999
"... The World Wide Web (WWW) continues to grow at an astounding rate in both the sheer volume of tra#c and the size and complexity of Web sites. The complexity of tasks such as Web site design, Web server design, and of simply navigating through a Web site have increased along with this growth. An i ..."

. An important input to these design tasks is the analysis of how a Web site is being used. Usage analysis includes straightforward statistics, such as page access frequency, as well as more sophisticated forms of analysis, such as finding the common traversal paths through a Web site.

Generating Representative Web Workloads for Network and Server Performance Evaluation
, 1997
"... One role for workload generation is as a means for understanding how servers and networks respond to variation in load. This enables management and capacity planning based on current and projected usage. This paper applies a number of observations of Web server usage to create a realistic Web worklo ..."

Focused crawling: a new approach to topic-specific Web resource discovery
, 1999
"... The rapid growth of the World-Wide Web poses unprecedented scaling challenges for general-purpose crawlers and search engines. In this paper we describe a new hypertext resource discovery system called a Focused Crawler. The goal of a focused crawler is to selectively seek out pages that are relevan ..."

Rather than collecting and indexing all accessible Web documents to be able to answer all possible ad-hoc queries, a focused crawler analyzes its crawl boundary to find the links
The SWISS-MODEL Workspace: A web-based environment for protein structure homology modelling
- BIOINFORMATICS
, 2005
"... Motivation: Homology models of proteins are of great interest for planning and analyzing biological experiments when no experimental three-dimensional structures are available. Building homology models requires specialized programs and up-to-date sequence and structural databases. Integrating all re ..."
