Web caching and prefetching: Techniques and analysis in World Wide Web
Farhan Mohamed, Abdul Samad Ismail, Siti Mariyam Shamsuddin · 2005
There has been an increase in user latency, the time needed to retrieve a web document, because of the increased number of World Wide Web users. Web caching and web prefetching have been suggested as effective ways to improve a user’s latency. We investigated the application of web environment variables for improving the performance of web caching and prefetching. A novel back-propagation artificial neural network is proposed to combine with the advantages of traditional web caching technique. This paper presents a collection of architectures of web caching and describing some of their design techniques that encompass the suitability factor in merging with proposed technique.
