Notes
 
The services covered here are the World-Wide Web, Gopher, Qi/Ph
Directory, and CMS View.  CMS View is available only to CMS users -
either using their own userid or by logging on to one of the anonymous
View userids.  The other services are available to workstations with
campus ethernet access or terminals on multi-user systems with
appropriate software.  Most of these services are available world-wide
over the Internet, although some data is restricted to UK users.
 
Web clients (like Mosaic and Netscape) can use all of these services,
Gopher clients can use all but the Web services, and Ph and Eudora
clients can use Qi/Ph services. (We distribute versions of most of
these for Macintosh, Windows, and some Unix platforms.) Tracking Web
client use is the most complex because of the number of protocols they
support.  A document on the Web server can refer the client to another
Web document, a Gopher item, or Qi/Ph search without the client user's
awareness.
 
The transaction counts are counts of Gopher and View menu picks - when
someone picks an item from a View or Gopher menu that counts as one
transaction.  A transaction could lead to a document, a search, or
another menu.  Web transactions are for documents and searches.  What
the Web user sees as a single page might involve multiple server
accesses.  Qi/Ph transactions are searches and requests for additional
information.
 
The primary campus Gopher and Qi/Ph servers are running on an IBM 3090
(gopher.uky.edu or ukcc.uky.edu) under VM/ESA. The primary Web server
is running on an HP 9000/800 G30 (www.uky.edu) under Unix. Additional
Web service is provided by the IBM 3090 VM/ESA system and the Convex
Metasystem (convex.cc.uky.edu).
