Analyzing the Browse Patterns of Mobile Clients

Overview The authors study the dynamics of a large popular commercial Web site designed specifically for users who access it via their cell-phones and PDAs. Unlike most previous Web studies that have analyzed accesses seen by proxies and servers from clients connected via the wired network, the authors focus primarily on client accesses made over wireless channels and made for downloading content on small devices for offline browsing. The authors carry out user-behavior analysis as users authenticate themselves before accessing and then every access is logged with a unique user identifier. The authors discuss the implications of the findings for techniques such as query caching, server scheduling, channel use and TCP optimization.
