WebEvolution Project

The Web is a constantly evolving dynamic media. The primary goal of this research is to examine the change and evolution of the Web. The questions we try to answer include "how much new content is introduced to the Web every day?", "how often do Web pages change?", "how can we model the changes of Web pages?", etc.
