  • Abstract
    The World Wide Web presents an interesting opportunity for data mining and knowledge discovery, and this area is growing rapidly as both a research topic and a business activity. In this survey we describe some of the problems that are addressed, and elements of the WebFountain infrastructure that we have built for addressing them. Our focus here is on describing some of the lessons learned and some broad research areas that are involved.
