Abstract

This paper researches feature of different data sources such as web site and social media, and proposes a load balancing method for distributed web crawlers by calculating weights of crawling data from various sources. Firstly, a seeding links allocation strategy is proposed based on analyzing differences of statistical data update frequency of different data sources. Then with the allocation strategy a data crawling solution using domain names and keywords as its task unit is given. Finally, by adjusting allocation among distributed web crawlers with calculating time expenditures of domain names and keywords as its weights, a load balancing method is proposed.
