Abstract

Abstract In an earlier paper, the potential of speculation (server-initiated prefetching) in distributed information systems (such as the WWW) was investigated and shown to be effective in reducing service time and server load. This speculation was based on statistical information that the server maintains for each document it serves. In this paper we study the performance of a client-initiated prefetching protocol, whereby speculation is based on past user-specific access patterns. In this paper we present results of trace-driven simulation experiments we performed using extensive user traces.
