Effective Performance of Information Retrieval on Web by Using Web Crawling

World Wide Web consists of more than 50 billion pages online. It is highly dynamic [6] i.e. the web continuously introduces new capabilities and attracts many people. Due to this explosion in size, the effective information retrieval system or search engine can be used to access the information. In this paper we have proposed the EPOW (Effective Performance of WebCrawler) architecture. It is a software agent whose main objective is to minimize the overload of a user locating needed information. We have designed the web crawler by considering the parallelization policy. Since our EPOW crawler has a highly optimized system it can download a large number of pages per second while being robust against crashes. We have also proposed to use the data structure concepts for implementation of scheduler & circular Queue to improve the performance of our web crawler. (Abstract)
