The link structure of the Web graph is used in algorithms such as Kleinberg's HITS and Google's PageRank to assign authoritative weights to Web pages and thus rank them. In HITS, a solid theoretical model is lacking and the algorithm often leads to non-uni ...
In the web context, it is difficult to disentangle presentation from process logic, and sometimes even data is not separate from the presentation. Consequently, it becomes crucial to define an abstract model for business processes, and their mapping into a ...
En 2003, trois institutions confrontées aux problèmes posés par la sauvegarde du patrimoine documentaire et situées sur le même site géographique se sont regroupées au sein du Consortium de sauvetage du patrimoine documentaire en cas de catastrophe (COSADO ...
Les systèmes de reconnaissance automatique de l'écriture permettent de transfomer des collections de documents manuscrits en archives de documents numériques. L'avantage n'est pas tellement la réduction de l'espace nécéssaire pour stoquer les données, mais ...

In this article we describe the approach taken by the first web search engines, discuss the state of the art, and present some of the challenges for the future. ...
The absence of benchmarks for Web sites with dynamic content has been a major impediment to research in this area. We describe three benchmarks for evaluating the performance of Web sites with dynamic content. The benchmarks model three common types of dyn ...
Studies of the Web graph at the granularity of documents have revealed many interesting link distributions. Similarly, studies of the Web graph at the granularity of Web sites, the so-called hostgraph, revealed relationships among hosts based on linkage an ...
One of the main differences between modern search engines and traditional ones is the adoption of link-based ranking algorithm in ordering Web documents. Google has claimed that it is its link-based ranking algorithm, PageRank that has made the quality of ...
Web search engines designed on top of peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay networks show promise to enable attractive search scenarios operating at a large scale. However the design of effective indexing techniques for extremely large document collections still rais ...
