Tree Delta Transcoding for Efficient Dynamic Resource Delivery on Asymmetric Internet

The paper presents a scheme for serving dynamic resources over the Internet. The method uses a combination of structured fragmentation of dynamic resources in a tree hierarchy and update messaging in the form of difference between the trees called the Tree Deltas. The proposed method reduces the impact of dynamic documents on network bandwidth, and shortens the response time. The system has been designed for an Active network like concept architecture where Tree Delta Transcoders (TDT) can be deployed and activated dynamically at the (active) network junction points. The system will be especially useful near the most difficult bandwidth constrained periphery of the Internet. As we shall see the analysis and results show that the proposed TDT communication can be an effective tool in surmounting the growing problem of asymmetry in the Internet in general, and in particular, can directly help in splicing wireless device networks with the commodity internet.
