Issues of Web-based monitoring implementation in higher education

Abstract

The paper is devoted to technology of web-based monitoring in higher education. It consists of three processes: data sources searching, data retrieval and indicators measurement. Data sources searching based on topic-focused web crawling provides a collection of potentially useful web pages. Data retrieval is aimed at clustering of collected web pages and extraction of raw data from them. Indicators measurement represents a measurement model for calculation of indicators’ values. The suggested technology is implemented on the basis of multiagent approach.
