Modeling Web Proxy Cache Architectures

چکیده
In this paper we evaluate the performance of design alternatives for Web proxy cache architectures. Our performance study employs deterministic and stochastic Petri nets (DSPN) as stochastic modeling formalism because DSPN provide an illustrative graphical representation. The presented DSPN models address in particular the sensitivity of the performance of proxy cache architectures on the traffic intensity and burstiness of client requests as well as on the cache size and network transfer times. We employ DSPN for a comparative performance study of two Web proxy cache architectures: a shared proxy cache and a partitioned proxy cache for text and image documents. For comparison and validation purpose, we also present performance figures for a simple Web server without a proxy cache. For both cache architectures, the benefits of prefetching are also investigated.

Time-Domain Analysis of Web Cache Filter Effects (Extended Version)
This paper uses trace-driven simulation to study the traffic arrival process for Web workloads in a simple Web proxy caching hierarchy. Both empirical and synthetic Web proxy workloads are used in the study. The simulation results show that a Web cache reduces both the peak and the mean request arrival rate for Web traffic workloads, while the variance-to-mean ratio of the filtered traffic typi...
متن کاملAnalysis of Design Alternatives for Reverse Proxy Cache Providers
Reverse proxy caches are used to provide scalability and improved latency to popular sites on the Web. In this paper we provide analytical performance models for distributed reverse proxy cache architectures, and study the trade-offs between various design alternatives. Specifically, we consider static and dynamic assignment of proxy cache nodes to Web sites, with different levels of sharing of...

متن کاملModeling of Retrieval Latency for Proxy Cache Simulations
A latency model for proxy cache simulations is presented. It classi es the object retrievals into eight classes according to the request and the reply types, and then decomposes each class into several time components such as the connection time and the transfer time. From this modeling, we can get reasonable retrieval latencies in the simulations for various caching algorithms. Indexing terms:...
