Hi, are there any vocabularies/ontologies to represent web site end-users browsing behaviour in terms of actions and transitions between different pages? For example, suppose that you run an e-commerce website. You display the products you sell in many different ways: keyword search results, faceted search results, browsing by items' categories, etc. Within a browsing session a user may, for example, browse by category, then pose a keyword query and use facets to filter out results etc. I'm interested in representing these interactions and transitions between different website pages, and then instantiate the model using real website usage statistics. Are you aware of efforts made in this direction? I found many works (e.g. [1, 2]) focusing on the "editorial" side, but my focus is slightly different (representing browsing behaviour a-posteriori). Thank you very much. [1] Yuangui Lei, Enrico Motta, John Domingue. An ontology driven approach to web site generation and maintenance.
