Academic project
PriceWebCrawler
Proposed automated monitoring and comparison of product prices across online stores using web crawlers.
PriceWebCrawler
PriceWebCrawler (PwC) (2012–2014) investigated automated retrieval of product information from online stores. The proposal used a web crawler to follow price changes and compare offers for the same product across different retailers.
The approach involved challenges in collecting and integrating heterogeneous commercial data. Project documentation records funding from FAPES. The available description states the intended capabilities but does not establish measured coverage or real-time operational performance.
