This thesis describes our research results in the context of peer-to-peer information retrieval (P2P-IR). One goal in P2P-IR is to build a search engine for the World Wide Web (WWW) that runs on up to hundreds of thousands or even millions computers distri ...
We consider the applicability of terms extracted from anchortext as a source of Web page descriptions in the form of tags. With a relatively simple and easy-to-use method, we show that anchortext significantly overlaps with tags obtained from the popular t ...
With the explosion of broadband Internet connections in the late 80s, new types of applications, called distributed applications, came to light. These applications typically seek to provide a user with remote services that appear to that user as if they we ...
Caching is an appealing approach for server-side acceleration of dynamic content web sites. Previous work in this area provides either non-transparent caching obtained at the expense of considerable effort from the application programmer, or a transparent ...
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 ...
A set of utilities for generating web computing environments related to mathematical and engineering library software is presented. The web interface can be accessed from a standard world wide web browser with no need for additional software installations ...

Despite the consolidation of the specialized proteomics literature around a few established journals, such as Proteomics, Molecular and Cellular Proteomics, and the Journal of Proteome Research, a lot of information is still spread in many different public ...
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 ...
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 ...
