Abstract

A system generates a list of near-uniform samples of data sets (e.g., web pages) from among a plurality of host computers. The system performs a random walk so as to generate a set of visited addresses. For each address in the set, a reachability measure is computed. Then, samples are selected from the set, such that the probability of selecting a given address is inversely proportional to the reachability measure for the address. The selected samples form the list of near-uniform samples.
