Mirror, Mirror on the Web: A Study of Host Pairs with Replicated Content
Overview What exactly is mirroring? The term is often used in the Web research literature but a crisp definition is hard to come by. At one extreme one can say that two sites are mirrored if their content is byte-wise identical. In practice this definition is too restrictive: even on successive accesses to the same URL the fetched content may differ slightly because of dynamic components, timestamps, transaction-ids, etc. At the other extreme, one can say that two sites are mirrors if enough pages on one are very similar to pages on the other. This definition does not address the issue of structure. When two sites have different structures, the proof offered by content similarity is not compelling. For instance, consider the web sites of New York Times and Washington Post (two major US newspapers). On any given day, they are likely to have some syntactically similar pages, e.g., because they draw articles from common sources, or because they publish official documents. Nevertheless, the two sites can hardly be called mirrors.
