Using Web Sites External Views for Fuzzy Classification

In the paper a fuzzy sets implementation into web sites classification is considered. Web sites external features are addressed and the possibility to use them for the classification is proved. An example with five different categories classification is given.

Marketing Hospitality Web Sites

Media web sites interactivity: Searching new ways to dialog with their users

Currently the media have made many new tools on their websites in order to broaden the dialogue with its users, a feature that has been called interactivity. The objective of this research is to describe the interactive resources of Chilean media websites. The analysis was conducted at 20 sites using a pattern of six dimensions with interactive forms which are today using identified. The findings indicate that digital media Chileans are expanding the possibilities of dialogue with users on social media, especially Twitter and Facebook, and the mediauser interaction is monological, that is to say, from the media to the user, but with very low feedback.

Database-backed library web sites: a case study of the use of PHP and MySQL at the University of Nottingham

This paper discusses the advantages of database-backed websites and describes the model for a library website implemented at the University of Nottingham using open source software, PHP and MySQL. As websites continue to grow in size and complexity it becomes increasingly important to introduce automation to help manage them. It is suggested that a database-backed website offers many advantages over one built from static HTML pages. These include a consistency of style and content, the ability to present different views of the same data, devolved editing and enhanced security. The University of Nottingham Library Services website is described and issues surrounding its design, technological implementation and management are explored.

'An Artificial Immune System as a Recommender System for Web Sites'

Artificial Immune Systems have been used successfully to build recommender systems for film databases. In this research, an attempt is made to extend this idea to web site recommendation. A collection of more than 1000 individuals' web profiles (alternatively called preferences / favourites / bookmarks file) will be used. URLs will be classified using the DMOZ (Directory Mozilla) database of the Open Directory Project as our ontology. This will then be used as the data for the Artificial Immune Systems rather than the actual addresses. The first attempt will involve using a simple classification code number coupled with the number of pages within that classification code. However, this implementation does not make use of the hierarchical tree-like structure of DMOZ. Consideration will then be given to the construction of a similarity measure for web profiles that makes use of this hierarchical information to build a better-informed Artificial Immune System.

Web banking in usa

Este artigo apresenta uma pesquisa em Web sites de bancos norte-americanos. Ela foi produzida com o objetivo de aprofundar o conhecimento sobre modelos de Web banking que estão sendo utilizados nos Estados Unidos. Observamos que os bancos americanos utilizam a Web para explorar três diferentes categorias de serviços: distribuir informação, distribuir produtos e serviços bancários e melhorar o relacionamento com os clientes. Dividimos cada uma destas três categorias em três níveis de interação para classificar diferentes tipos de aplicações que são encontradas em cada um dos Web sites pesquisados.

Uma abordagem de alto nível para a verificação de conteúdos na web

A manutenção do conteúdo web pode ser uma tarefa difícil, especialmente se considerarmos websites em que muitos utilizadores têm permissões para alterar o seu conteúdo. Um exemplo deste tipo de websites são os wikis. Se por um lado permitem rápida disseminação de conhecimento, por outro lado implicam um grande esforço para verificar a qualidade do seu conteúdo. Nesta tese analisamos diferentes abordagens à modelação de websites, especialmente para a verificação de conteúdo, onde contribuímos com uma extensão à ferramenta VeriFLog para a tornar mais adequada à verificação de conteúdos em websites colaborativos.
