Description for Modeling the Internet and the Web: Probabilistic Methods and Algorithms Hardcover. Despite its haphazard growth, the Web hides powerful underlying regularities -- from the organization of its links to the patterns found in its use by millions of users. Probabilistic modelling allows many of these regularities to be predicted on the basis of theoretical models based on statistical methodology. Num Pages: 306 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBWH; UDB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 239 x 163 x 16. Weight in Grams: 588.
Modeling the Internet and the Web covers the most important aspects of modeling the Web using a modern mathematical and probabilistic treatment. It focuses on the information and application layers, as well as some of the emerging properties of the Internet.
