The View estimates are based on the total number of View and Gopher service accesses. For individual View items the actual counts may be much higher or lower. The figures are total transactions with a daily average. Approx. Avg. Gopher View Total Daily 1. Weather 11,581 9,444 21,025 690.8 2. Classes&Registrar 3,324 2,711 6,035 198.3 3.

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).
