Dividing the web site page content or web portal page into logical chunks is one of the prominent methods for better management of web site content and for improving web site's performance. While this works well for public web page scenarios, personalized pages have challenges with dynamic data, data caching, privacy and security concerns which pose challenges in creating and caching content chunks. Web portals has huge dependence on personalized data. In this paper the authors have introduced a novel concept called “personalized content chunk” and “personalized content spot” that can be used for segregating and efficiently managing the personalized web scenarios. The authors' experiments show that performance can be improved by 30% due to the personalized content chunk framework.

Abstract Background Sharing test results with patients via patient web portals is a new trend in healthcare. No research has been done examining patient web portal use with bone density test results. The objective of our study was to identify patient characteristics associated with the use of patient web portals to view their bone density test results. Methods A secondary analysis of data from a pragmatic randomized controlled trial of 7749 participants ≥50 years old that had presented for a dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) bone density test. Patients were interviewed at enrollment and 12 weeks later. Multivariable logistic regression identified patient characteristics that differentiated those who used the web portal from those who did not. Results Our sample included 4669 patients at the two (University of Iowa [UI], and Kaiser Permanente of Georgia [KPGA]) clinical sites that had patient web portals. Of these patients, 3399 (72.8%) reported knowing their test results 12 weeks post-DXA, with 649 (13.9%) reporting that they viewed their DXA results using the web portal. Web portal users were more likely to be from UI than KPGA, and were younger, more educated, had higher health literacy, had osteopenia, and had the same sex as their referring physician (all p < 0.05). Conclusion Only 19.1% of the 3399 patients who knew their DXA results used the available patient web portals to find out about them. Web portal users differed from non-users on several characteristics. This suggests that simply making patient web portals available for use may not be sufficient to appreciably enhance patient awareness of their test results. Based on these findings, a better understanding of the reasons why older, less educated, and less activated patients do not access their test results through patient web portals is needed.

The Web

A Web portal is a gateway to the information and services on the Web where its users can interchange and share information (Tatnall, 2005). It is designed and implemented for a specific community. However, it is unlikely that people who access a Web portal are all so similar in their interests that one standardized way of delivering information fits all needs. This has motivated the need for personalization in Web portals.

The aim of this contribution is to show how the information, concerning the order in which the pages of a Web site are visited, can be profitably used to predict the visit behaviour at the site. Usually every click corresponds to the visualization of a Web page. Thus, a Web clickstream defines the sequence of the Web pages requested by a user. Such a sequence identifies a user session.

Search engines use crawlers to traverse the Web in order to download web pages and build their indexes. Maintaining these indexes up-to-date is an essential task to ensure the quality of search results. However, changes in web pages are unpredictable. Identifying the moment when a web page changes as soon as possible and with minimal computational cost is a major challenge. In this article we present the Web Change Detection system that, in a best case scenario, is capable to detect, almost in real time, when a web page changes. In a worst case scenario, it will require, on average, 12 minutes to detect a change on a low PageRank web site and about one minute on a web site with high PageRank. Meanwhile, current search engines require more than a day, on average, to detect a modification in a web page (in both cases).

Segregating the web page content into logical chunks is one of the popular techniques for modular organization of web page. While chunk-based approach works well for public web scenarios, in case of mobile-first personalization cases, chunking strategy would not be as effective for performance optimization due to dynamic nature of the Web content and due to the nature of content granularity. In this paper, the authors propose a novel framework Micro chunk based Web Delivery Framework which proposes and uses a novel concept of “micro chunk”. The micro chunk based Web Delivery framework aims to address the performance challenges posed by regular chunk in a personalized web scenario. The authors will look at the methods for creating micro chunk and they will discuss the advantages of micro chunk when compared to a regular chunk for a personalized mobile web scenario. They have created a prototype application implementing the Micro chunk based Web Delivery Framework and benchmarked it against a regular personalized web application to quantify the performance improvements achieved by micro chunk design.

Web portals present an effective way to integrate applications, people, and business by offering a unique point of access to these resources within an organization and also with external business partners. Moreover, the integration of business processes, automation of daily tasks, and data integration contribute to cut down costs and accelerate business operations. However, Web portal development and maintenance imposes many challenges to developers, such as how to provide personalization features to users (organizations and individuals), how to control access from different users, how to integrate and present data from different sources, and how to maintain the content of the Web portal.

The World Wide Web provides a means for sharing data and applications among users. However, its performance and in particular providing fast response time is still an issue. Caching is a key technique that addresses some of the performance issues in today’s Web-enabled applications. Deploying dynamic data especially in an emerging class of Web applications, called Web Portals, makes caching even more interesting. In this chapter, we study Web caching techniques with focus on dynamic content. We also discuss the limitations of caching in Web portals and study a solution that addresses these limitations. The solution is based on the collaboration between the portal and its providers.

Current generations of graduate students have been immersed in technology from their early school years and have high expectations regarding digital resources. To better meet the expectations of Gross Anatomy students at our institution, electronic radiology teaching files for first-year coursework were organized into a web site. The web site was custom designed to provide material that directly correlated to the Gross Anatomy dissection and lectures. Quick links provided sets of images grouped by anatomic location. Additionally, Lab and Study Companions provided specific material for the students to review prior to and after lectures and gross dissections. Student opinions of this education resource were compared to student opinions of the prior year’s digital teaching files. The new content was ranked as more user friendly (3.1 points versus 2.3 points) and more useful for learning anatomy (3.3 points versus 2.6 points). Many students reported that using the web portal was critical in helping them to better understand relationships of anatomical structures. These findings suggest that a well-organized web portal can provide a user-friendly, valuable educational resource for medical students who are studying Gross Anatomy.

Summary: Here we introduce a novel web-infrastructure for differential network analysis. The aim of the web-site is to provide a comprehensive collection of tools for network inference, network comparison and network reproducibility analysis. Four main processes are available through the web service: the network inference process which include 11 reconstruction algorithms, the network distance process with 3 available metrics, the network stability process which includes all the network reconstruction methods and network distances and the netwok statistic process which computes the most common measure for network characterization. We introduce here a novel infrastructure which allows the user- interface logic to be separated from computing services and the asynchronous task management. Task submission is implemented mimicking the high performance computing queue submission system which allows to run multiple jobs without affecting the front-end server. Availability and Implementation: The web-site is available at https://renette.fbk.eu, the implementation is based on the django framework and Apache, with all major browsers supported. Furthermore, the whole project is Open Source under GPLv2 and the code is available on GitHub at https://github.com/MPBA/ renette for local installation.
