The clustering of the Web users based on their access patterns is studied. Access patterns of the Web users are extracted from Web servers' log les, and then organized into sessions which represent episodes of interaction between Web users and the Web server. Using attributed-oriented induction, the sessions are then generalized according to the page hierarchy which organizes pages according to...

High-performance Web sites rely on Web server “farms”—hundreds of computers serving the same content—for scalability, reliability, and low-latency access to Internet content. Deploying these scalable farms typically requires the power of distributed or clustered file systems. Building Web server farms on file systems complements hierarchical proxy caching.1 Proxy caching replicates Web content ...

with the increased confidence in the use of the internet and the world wide web, the number of electronic commerce (e-commerce) transactions is growing rapidly. therefore, finding useful patterns and rules of users’ behaviors has become the critical issue for e-commerce and can be used to tailor e-commerce services in order to successfully meet the customers’ needs. this paper proposes an appro...

Replication of information among multiple Web servers is necessary to support high request rates to popular Web sites. A clustered Web-server organization is preferable to multiple independent mirrored-servers because it maintains a single interface to the users and has the potential to be more scalable, fault-tolerant and better load balanced. In this paper we propose a Web cluster architectur...
