Abstract

Users of collaborative applications as well as individual users in their private environment return to previously visited Web pages for various reasons; apart from pages visited due to backtracking, they typically have a number of favorite or important pages that they monitor or tasks that reoccur on an infrequent basis. In this paper, we introduce a library of methods that facilitate revisitation through the effective prediction of the next page request. It is based on a generic framework that inherently incorporates contextual information, handling uniformly both server- and the client-side applications. Unlike other existing approaches, the methods it encompasses are real-time, since they do not rely on training data or machine learning algorithms. We evaluate them over two large, real-world datasets, with the outcomes suggesting a significant improvement over methods typically used in this context. We have also made our implementation and data publicly available, thus encouraging other researchers to use it as a benchmark and to extend it with new techniques for supporting user's navigational activity.
