Development Of Network Statistics

With the rapid and popular development of internet, internet is regarded as the main important media to get and spread information for people. Traditional statistical activities must be innovated accordingly. Consequently, the Internet Statistics, as a latest subject, can be well developed. Internet Statistics is a new kind of application that the Traditional Statistics applies to new information media.In this article, there are some issues will be discussed detailed, such as the origin and stages of Internet Statistics development, status of its research all over the world, structure and platform of Internet Statistics, information system etc. And some feasible solutions of these issues are represented in the end.Internet Statistics is a borderline subject which is the inner desire of traditional statistics innovation. It came to being during the course of utilizing modern computer network technology tools, absorbing the quintessence of relational theory and experience on the conditions of former statistics basis principle.In our country, internet statistics can trace back to 1970's when official statistical system was put into inner practice. At that time, statistical data must be concentrated to analyze for using only mainframe computer. The first actual network statistical system came into being is in the middle of 1980's when distributed computing popularized. In 1986, "Micro-Computer Beginning, Human Relate to Computer, From Small to Huge, Gradually Development" as a strategy was written to National Bureau of Statistics' '"The Seventh Five-Year' Plan for National Statistical Information Automatic System Advices", we had constructed initial statistical data processing system after painstaking efforts. In 1990, we laid down "The Eighth Five-Year" Plan according to the principle of "Plan as A Whole, Raise Funds in Many Ways, Relate People and Computer, Corollary Software and Hardware". In this principle, we made internet statistics developed from system data analysis to information management. In 2000, the National Bureau of Statistics has begun to establish the PKI system which is aimed at the internal professional information demands and services for statistical professional information exchange of enterprises and the whole society. Currently, there are some good examples for this system, such as on-line direct reporting system for three thousand domestic real estate agencies and five thousand enterprises in industry. For twenty years, the internet statistics in our country has been initially well developed under the statistical personnel's hard work.Currently, there are two aspects to analyze internet statistics in abstract: one is to research the advantages and disadvantages between the way of traditional and internet statistics. The other is how to take effective measures to construct the internet statistical web sites and information system, design survey homepages, and analyze data, under the conditions of internet statistics.And then, I will discuss several issues on the streaming information of internet statistics such as three Hierarchies of Internet Statistics and Information System of Internet Statistics.There exist some typical issues during the developing of internet statistics, suchas statistical personnel's technical quality, bias of statistical result comes from internet, database safety, internet statistical activities supervision, and statistical information quality.In the current circumstance, some of the above issues we can settle through special measure. For example, we can give some people who pursuit statistics technical support, utilize software and hardware firewall, adopt newly statistical analysis techniques. But some of these issues such as the bias of statistical result which comes from internet we can not resolve in the near future because it derives from the statistics outer circumstance such as disequilibrium of network distribution and disproportion of population all over the world.
