Abstract
The importance of a Web page is an inherently subjective matter, which depends on the readers interests, knowledge and attitudes. But there is still much that can be said objectively about the relative importance of Web pages. This paper describes PageRank, a mathod for rating Web pages objectively and mechanically, effectively measuring the human interest and attention devoted to them. We compare PageRank to an idealized random Web surfer. We show how to efficiently compute PageRank for large numbers of pages. And, we show how to apply PageRank to search and to user navigation.

System and method for context-based knowledge search, tagging, collaboration, management and advertisement

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe methods and systems for creating, managing, searching, personalizing, and monetizing a knowledge system defined over a corpus of digital content, in which a user can initiate in-depth searches of subject matter and can browse, navigate, pinpoint, and select relevant contexts, concepts, and documents to gain knowledge.

Evolving the web into a global data space

TL;DR: This talk will discuss how the openness and self-descriptiveness of Linked Data provide for splitting data integration costs between data publishers, data consumers and third parties and thus might enable global-scale data integration in an evolutionary, pay-as-yougo fashion.

Efficient crawling through URL ordering

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study in what order a crawler should visit the URLs it has seen, in order to obtain more "important" pages first, and they show that a good ordering scheme can obtain important pages significantly faster than one without.

HyPursuit: a hierarchical network search engine that exploits content-link hypertext clustering

TL;DR: Experience with HyPursuit suggests that abstraction functions based on hypertext clustering can be used to construct meaningful and scalable cluster hierarchies, and is encouraged by preliminary results on clustering based on both document contents and hyperlink structures.

The quest for correct information on the Web: hyper search engines

TL;DR: This paper presents a novel method to extract from a web object its “hyper” informative content, in contrast with current search engines, which only deal with the “textual’ informative content.
