Abstract

Web log files record a vast amount of information and much of it just gets in the way of meaningful observational studies on usage. It is therefore necessary to filter out the junk in a deliberate way before making statements on how the web is being used. This report describes the methods and scripts used to accomplish apache web log filtering and report generation. It is open to scrutiny and freely available for others to use.
