From Summary of Database Storage and Search of Web Logs at ARL Review ARL End of Year 2 Review Aberdeen Sheraton 4 Points -- July 29-30 98. by Jake Kim, Deepak Ramanathan


To understand the temporal and geographic patterns of WWW server access, we developed a set of heuristics for mapping IP addresses to their geographic location. These heuristics rely on the domain names and the InterNIC whois database. The whois database contains information on domains, hosts, networks, and other Internet administrators. The information usually, though not always, includes a postal address.
