The perceived latency for a user surfing the Internet is the target of a transparent and speculative algorithm that relies on a user behavior model. The model is based on past use...
Web prefetching mechanisms have been proposed to benefit web users by hiding the download latencies. Nevertheless, to the knowledge of the authors, there is no attempt to compare...
