Since the midst of 1990s, a great variety of strategies have been proposed and analyzed to
address the problem of web caching object replacement strategies, with each one …

The popularity of Web objects, and by extension the popularity of the Web sites, besides the
appearance of clear footprints in user's accesses that show a considerable spatial locality …

The basics of web prefetching are to preprocess user requests before they are actually
demanded. Therefore, the time that the user must wait for the requested documents can be …

Computer networks have two important characteristics: the vast diversity of connecting
devices and a great variability of the physical distribution of equipments. Therefore, the …

Performance comparison studies are primarily carried out through real systems or simulation
environments. Simulation is the most commonly used method to explore new proposals due …

Efficient policies should be applied in order to decrease the document retrieval time on

In this paper, we describe a Windows based Web cache simulator tool. This tool is able to
process the IRCache based traces files and reproduce the behavior of a Web Proxy Cache …

This paper presents a powerful framework to simulate Web proxy cache systems. Our tool
provides a comfortable environment to simulate and explore cache management …

Anomalous behavior in computer networks is always a challenge when a great number of
connected devices is considered, as well as the issue of privacy when direct access to the …
