Abstract

With the increasing amount of dynamic andpersonalized web content, researchers start to address theacceleration of the first time access of web pages,hopefully to bring significant improvement to contentdelivery. While most of these efforts are related to theoptimization of connectivity usage (e.g. persistentconnection) and efficient content encoding (e.g. datacompression and transcoding), this paper tries to addressthe same issue from the view point of content retrievaldependence within a web page. A novel mechanism,called the Object Declaration (OD), is proposed to passinformation about embedded object usage of a page to aclient earlier, preferably without the need to fetch the datachunks of the page container object that defines them.Result shows that web page latency can be reduced byabout 3% to over 13%.
