Abstract :
This paper highlights the results of a survival survey and life span study of 10 million web pages, mainly in Japanese, that were collected for NTCIR-3 (web task) in 2001. To calculate web page life span, metadata was collected from Internet Archive´s Wayback Machine via Memento. The life span study showed that the average life span of a web page is 1,132.1 days.
