Sugar Network/Node Statistics

Summary

This page describes the statistics that Sugar Network node servers generate. The statistics are about the entire node server and not personalized. Note that the statistics are targeted for the interests of educational researchers rather than service maintainers, thus, technical details that are important only for node maintaining are excluded.

Statistics will be collected by analyzing regular requests to an API server and stored for each Sugar Network node. It will be possible to get direct access to these stats using node's API. In addition, slave node statistics will be uploaded to the master server.

Common statistics

Statistics will be collected per Sugar Network object type.

Per object statistics

While calculating common statistics, the node will generate per object sums as well.

These are the Sugar Network objects that will be affected:

• Context properties:
  • Context.downloads
    Number of total downloads for the Context.
  • Context.rating
    Average rating given to the Context while reviewing.
  • Context.reviews
    Number of Reviews.

• Artifact properties:
  • Artifact.downloads
    Number of total downloads for the Artifact.
  • Artifact.rating
    Average rating given to the Artifact while reviewing.
  • Artifact.reviews
    Number of Reviews.
