THE EXISTENCE PROOF SERVICE OF THEWEB PAGES - New Web Service to Get Grounds of the Existence of the Web Pages

Abstract

Abstract:Recently, because of the wide use of the Internet, more people exchange the information via the Web so that they can see a lot of scenes that the Web technology is used to get information. However, because the information on the Web is electronic-base data, the information can be deleted or changed frequently. There are some cases that we can not find the same information on the same URL afterward. Therefore, it is difficult to prove to the third party that the content existed or the content has not been changed. Hence, we developed the Web service called "The existence proof service of the Web pages" that create the Web cache and adds the time stamp as the grounds that the cache has not been changed. With this service, the Web page can be proved to have existed in a certain URL at certain time. And this can be used for verification of the alteration of the Web page.
