More than thirty years after the birth of the World Wide Web, Web Science is an established study field in Computer Science. This course introduces fundamental concepts (web centralities & basic algorithms, network models and web engineering principles) of Web Science. We will learn fundamental algorithms for web page ranking like PageRank and HITS as well as community detection algorithms. In the engineering part we dig into scalable approaches like cloud computing and peer-to-peer partly based on Post-HTTP protocols like the XMPP and WebRTC are. We will learn about Web Services and their RESTful implementation. With the knowledge gained in the preceding chapters we can analyze and engineer advanced Web applications.
