Abstract. Streaming media workloads have a number of desirable properties that make them good candidates for caching via proxy systems. The content does not get modified, and acce...
Reuse distance (i.e. LRU stack distance) precisely characterizes program locality and has been a basic tool for memory system research since the 1970s. However, the high cost of m...
