STOP SOPA ☣ STOP RWA
Two bills are making their way through the U.S. Congress that would have highly negative consequences for AcaWiki and the public good. Please take action against both.
Many large sites are blacked out January 18 to spur action against SOPA. Visit americancensorship.org to take action against this bill, which is a censorship and security risk for the entire internet. Wikimedia's General Counsel explains how SOPA would hurt wikis.
RWA would prohibit federal agencies from conditioning their grants to require that articles reporting on publicly funded research be made accessible to the public online. This is unjust and would specifically harm AcaWiki by greatly reducing the number of people with access to important literature — access is required to summarize. Please tell congresspeople to oppose RWA.
See AcaWiki:SOPA-RWA for planning and discussion of this message.

Summary:
We estimated two different page weights (a) Page Retaining Weight (PRW) and (b) Page Forwarding Weight (PFW) for a web page and grouped for categorization. Using these experimental results we classified the web pages into four different groups
Theoretical and practical relevance:
Will be useful in improving the performance of search engines and also delves into study of web modeling studies
