TPC-W is now outdated because of the improvement in web technologies. However, there does not seem to be an alternative to this and I believe using this tool for recent research will not really encompass the different aspects of recent web technologies. I came across some new benchmarks, but I quickly found out they are not really useable.

Dear researchers,
There are some Web sources which are accessed just by Web robots and human users are unaware of them. 'robots.txt' file is a good example of such sources which is practically used as an indicator for detecting Web robots.
I would be appreciative if you let me know what are other Web sources (like files) which are just accessed by Web robots and used as an indicator for these crawlers. 
Relevant answer
Answer
Polite web robots introduce themselves in the User Agent field.
You can search for substrings like 'bot', 'spider',
'crawler', 'slurp'.
Rarely a robot tries to access a search page.
The robots tests whether a webpage has a search engine
and makes a GET request for something like
/search?...
Regards,
Joachim

I am doing my research on web 2.0 tools that i have used in history of art course. I want to conduct an interview with the teacher in which i want to ask questions that are based on web 2.0 technologies' impact on student learning according to the teacher's perspective. There is only one teacher. I am not sure if I should do structured or unstructured interview?
Relevant answer
Answer
A useful compromise between more structured and less structured interviews is what is known as a funnel approach. The analogy is that the interview starts more broadly (with less structured questions) and then narrows down (into more structured questions). This allows you to hear the participant's perspective first, before you introduce the topics that interest you.

Web load testing is getting more attention in web development field. I would like to know more on the recent researches on web load testing for different web platforms. Are their any unsolved problems on web load testing on different web platforms? Does the web platform effect the performance of the web application? Does the web load testing tools result differ while performing in different platforms?
At last, can i perform an evaluation of different web load testing tools for different cloud or web platform and find interpret the results forming a conclusion for my research?
I would like to know more about web load testing. Where can I start and where to find the problem domain?

Crowdfunding seems efficient for individual, retail financing (e.g. fundrasing for a project).
How could a company use only web-technology for its Corporate Finance actions (e.g. new Bond and Stock emission, for liability and equity financing)?
How could the services of an Investment Bank offered to a company be provided merely via the Web (e.g. syndication, IPO, etc.)?
Relevant answer
Answer
I think that crowfunfing campaigns may help entrepreneurs to obtain feedback on their market demand and may complement the financing needs of the young firm. But the idea underpinning the  firm's project may be replicated quickly by others, if revealed on a platform. Moreover, the presence on platforms of professional investors (venture capitalists) reduces the entrepreneur's incentives to undertake a crowfunding campaign.. Perhaps the optimal funding structure turns out to be a mix of crowfunding and professionnal investors financing schemes.

Is it possible to generate an ontology randomly without domain experts? I would like to know what are the constraints to build an ontology.
Relevant answer
Answer
An ontology, e.g. encoded in OWL, can be perceived as a graph, whose nodes are classes, restrictions, individuals and literals, whereas edges are attributed with object or datatype properties or are taxonomic relations.
Obviously, any graph can be generated with graph grammar rules, e.g. single pushouts, double pushouts, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_rewriting.
However, such mechanical generation would never result in a domain ontology. It would be just a random graph with random names of classes and properties.
If you take as input a domain ontology constituting a TBox, i.e. classes, restrictions and properties, you may generate a model (ABox) consistent with it being. a set of individuals and literals linked by relations. This can be done in quite a strightforward way.
Generating TBox is much harder, you should pull in actual knowledge into the ontology, e,g, from text documents. It is no longer a generation task, rather a relationship mining. As stated Saravana Balaji B, this requires employing NLP techniques: looking for concept candidates (nouns followed by adjectives) and relation candidates (verbs).

Which attributes can evaluate the performance of content available from a university website from a user perspective?
Here, users can be prospective students or parents of students, or can be a employee who wants to join the organization.

Answer
Dwell time must not be too short (info irrelevant) or too long (not understandable).
If people are going directly to the page required, and not going via the home page, this is a good sign.
A Google of: sher-e-kashmir university application form
takes me right to a home page http://www.skuastkashmir.ac.in/
The page is full of hard to read highlighted links, garish colour, NEW bling, and distracting panes scrolling vertically and horizontally. Does that give the right impression that this is a serious institution?
