With an ever increasing amount of data to store, hierarchical storage management (HSM) systems must still use tape for tertiary storage. A disk cache is used to reduce the access ...
A group of web caches can be organized into a cooperative hierarchy where a search for a requested object is performed among the cooperating peer caches before the object request ...
—Caching is a popular technique for reducing both server load and user response time in distributed systems. In this paper, we consider the question of whether caching might be e...
An adaptive cache coherence mechanism exploits semantic information about the expected or observed access behavior of particular data objects. We contend that, in distributed shar...
As the gap between memory and processor speeds continues to widen, cache efficiency is an increasingly important component of processor performance. Compiler techniques have been...
