State-of-artsurvey of various web prefetching techniques
Jyotsna Parmar, Jyoti Verma · 2016
Web access delay faced by the users is a big challenge in front of researchers. Various techniques have been proposed in the last decade that could help reduce this latency time. Primarily, it includes Caching and Web Prefetching. A web object is cacheable and of help to the user if it is not dynamic. Web Prefetching on the other hand pre-fetches and keeps the web objects to be accessed by the user in future in cache based on his interest pattern. But still there is a gap between the user request and the result provided. There is a lack in the relevancy of the results. Web prefetching can be improved if domain ontology could be used and semantics could be analyzed and matched. Semantic Web Prefetching is a technique that tries to analyze the semantics of the keywords provided by the user or the content of the web page. This paper is an effort to provide the state-of-the-art survey of various Semantic Web Prefetching Techniques.
