Abstract

This poster proposes two recent log file or web mining approaches (macro-mining & micro-mining of webserver log files). We try to bring together the popular method called macro analysis which aggregates common server request counts (e.g. number of downloads of a certain document) with the micro analysis method which is less known in log analysis. The micro-mining approach focuses on segmented log files which can be drilled down to transactions of single users. Both analysis methods will be explained by an example. Furthermore we try to identify new use cases and try to sketch ways of combined analysis for both web mining methods.
