The exponential growths of the World Wide Web (WWW) users have made the deployment of proxy servers popular on a network with limited resources. WWW clients perceive better response time, improved performance and speed when response to requested pages are served from the cache of a proxy server, resulting in faster response times after the first document fetch. This work proposes cyclic multica...

The semantic web represents a major advance in web utility, but it is currently difficult to create semantic-web content because pages must be semantically annotated through processes that are mostly manual and require a high degree of engineering skill. Furthermore, users need an effective way to query the semantic web, but any burden placed on users to learn a query language is unlikely to ga...

With social networks like Facebook, twitter reaching to the common masses, these have become the best target for spammers. The newest way to mislead and fraud viewers is Page Spam . Viewers are deceived to click on links to spam their connections, redirect to a fraudulent business or spread wrong information about famous figures, organizations and causes. This research aims to categorize such p...

The main problem addressed in this paper is how to help learners construct knowledge in exploring hyperspace provided by existing hypermedia/hypertext-based resources on the World Wide Web. Knowledge construction involving reflection needs an awareness of exploration goals, i.e., the reasons why learners have explored Web pages. The authors designed a learning tool called interactive history, w...

Reformatting information currently held in databases into HyperText Markup Language (HTML) pages suitable for the World-Wide Web (WWW) requires significant effort both in creating the pages initially and their subsequent maintenance. We avoid these costs by directly coupling a WWW server to the source data within a database using additional software we have developed. This software layer automa...

This paper details the design, implementation and evaluation of an ontology-based knowledge sharing tool. The system, “Squidz”, automatically classifies browsed web pages against an ontology, and allows users to share comments made about those pages to members of a community. As the user browses web pages, recommendations of relevant documents which have already been shared are produced, based ...

We present a design for displaying and manipulating HTML pages on small handheld devices such as personal digital assistants (PDAs), or cellular phones. We introduce methods for summarizing parts of Web pages. Each page is broken into text units that can each be hidden, partially displayed, made fully visible, or summarized. A variety of methods are introduced that summarize the text units. We ...

Users are interested in current web pages contents in optimum time. In this paper, we describe the technique to detect multiple changes in a web page or Flat files in form of insertion or deletion of the content or structure change. This efficient approach is suitable for client application and for implementing server applications that could serve the needs of users in monitoring modifications ...

As web technologies evolve, web archivists work to keep up so that our digital history is preserved. Recent advances in web technologies have introduced client-side executed scripts that load data (Ajax) without a referencable identifier (e.g., URI) and others that require user interaction (e.g., content loading when the page has scrolled). These advances have made automating methods for captur...
