Many access statistics to HKUST electronic resources are generated from Logs Miner. This is an experimental project to extend the capabilities of AWstats ‐ an open source tool for analyzing server log files. HKUST staff have developed a tool to selectively apply AWstats analysis to log files from all of our available in‐house servers.
