Hi all,
I read the paper http://www2003.org/cdrom/papers/refereed/p007/p7- abiteboul.html and try to understand the implementation of this paper (opic-scoring plugin). I looked at the code of the OpicScoringFilter. I understand the method distributeScoreToOutlink. The current page distribute his score (or his cash) to his outlinks.

But i can not find the algorithm from method updateDbScore in this paper. I think this method sets the history of a page? In this case: In the paper is written: the history of a page is: oldHistory +scoreOfCurrentPage But in the code: the score (or history ?) of a page is set to: oldScore + sumOfScoreOfAllInlinks. ok this method sounds logical. A score of a page is the sum of all the scores of his inlinks. But i can not found this algorithm in the paper.

A second point is the indexerScore method. This method returns pow (scoreOfPage, scorePower). But in the paper is the relevance of a page: historyOfPage+scoreOfPage/( historyOfAllPages + 1)

Is the implementation (opic-scoring plugin) an other version of the OPIC Algorithm or overlook i something? I think i must read the paper again ;-) .

Thanks for every clarification.

Marko
