Embodiment Construction

[0046] Referring generally to the drawings, and now with particular reference to Figure 2, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will now be described in greater detail.

[0047] Figure 2 shows an additional inventive component 175 embedded in a prior art portal server and cooperating closely with the aggregation component 170 through a corresponding programming interface.

[0048] specific reference image 3 , the aggregation component 170 described above controls the further functions described in blocks 172 , 174 , 176 , 177 and 178 . It further shows the portal user the given topology of the portal.

[0049] The web usage mining component 176 has a read interface to the web server's inbox that receives user requests resulting from the user clicking somewhere on a link visible on the currently used web page. In addition, component 176 also has an interface to the clock of the web server in order to store the arrival time of user requests. Through these interfac...

Abstract

The present invention relates to the field of network computing, and in particular to method and system for designing a Web Portal comprising a hierarchical structure of portal pages and portlets for accessing Web contents accessible via the Portal. For offering improved web application navigation it is proposed to perform the steps of: a) during navigation of a user in the topology of said web portal automatically sensing (520, 525) information about the navigational behavior of said user for each page comprised of said navigation, b) deriving (530) page hits and page target hits from said sensed information, wherein page hits are defined for pages clicked for reaching another page, and page target hits are defined for pages a user clicks in order to perform a page- specific task or to receive some page-specific information, c) using a predefined metric based on said sensed information for generating a utility ranking for the web pages comprised of the user navigation, d) tracking (620) the current navigational position during said user's navigation, e) calculating for said current position and a plurality of target pages a probability measure to navigate to a respective one of said target pages, wherein said target pages are obtained by said utility ranking, f) calculating (670) an expected saving factor for each target page based on said target page utility and on the navigational distance between said current page and said target page, g) defining (675) at least one shortcut including the respective direct link to at least one of the target pages having a high expected saving factor, h) displaying (680) said short cut as a clickable link to said user.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of network computing, and in particular, relates to a method for designing a web portal or an enterprise portal (the web portal or an enterprise portal includes a portal page and a portlet for accessing web content or enterprise content that can be accessed through the portal ( A method and system for a hierarchical structure of portlets). Background technique [0002] figure 1 A schematic system view is given for a portal server implementing such a prior art web portal. [0003] For example, the portal of the prior art represented by the above IBM WebSphere Portal or Jetspeed2Enterprise Portal (www.Portals.apache.org / jetspeed-2 / Portal-design.html) is through the web server (for example, web server 100 ), their most important elements are logical components for user authentication 105, state processing 110, fragment aggregation 115, multiple portlets 120 (further described next, The portlets 120 are provide...
