Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the concept of cooperative hoarding to reduce the risks of cache misses for mobile clients. Cooperative hoarding takes advantage of group mobility behaviour, combined with peer cooperation in ad-hoc mode, to improve hoard performance. Two cooperative hoarding approaches that take into account clientsý access frequencies, connection probabilities and cache size when performing hoarding are proposed. Test results show that the proposed methods significantly improve cache hit ratio and reduce query costs compared to existing approaches.
