Abstract

Web caching is an important technique for reducing web traffic, user access latency, and server load and cache replacement plays an important role in the functionality of web caching. In this paper we propose an improved GreedyDual (GD) cache document replacement algorithm, which considers update frequency as a factor in its utility function. We use both trace data and statistical data to simulate our proposed algorithm. The experimental results show that our improved GD algorithm can outperform the existing GD algorithm over the performance metrics considered.
