Abstract:
1. A method executing on a computing system for exposing juice contributions indicative of a target juice value corresponding to a target node within a web of inter-linked nodes, the method comprising: creating a first index to overlap a closed index, said closed index comprising a plurality of closed-index node entries and a corresponding plurality of closed-index juice values, said first index comprising a multiplicity of first-index node entries, said multiplicity of first-index node entries comprising a node entry corresponding to the target node and a plurality of other node entries corresponding to at least a representative sample of the web of inter-linked nodes; identifying via said first index a first plurality of inbound links targeting the target node; for each of said first plurality of inbound links: providing, from the computing system to a remote computing system, a plurality of juice-passed values determined for each of said first plurality of inbound links; identifying via said first index a first plurality of outbound links sourced from the target node; and for each of said plurality of outbound links: wherein creating said first index comprises, for each of a plurality of nodes:
