چکیده

The performance of computer systems is heavily dependent upon the caching systems used. This article investigates the eeect of two well known caching systems , Victim caching and Prefetching. Markov Models for memory systems are presented for the performance analysis of systems using the combination of these two techniques. Simulation results are presented and compared with standard caching methods. The techniques are then shown to be eeective at improving computer systems performance.

A Survey of Web Caching and Prefetching

Web caching and prefetching are the most popular techniques that play a key role in improving the Web performance by keeping web objects that are likely to be visited in the near future closer to the client. Web caching can work independently or integrated with the web prefetching. The Web caching and prefetching can complement each other since the web caching exploits the temporal locality for...

An Observed Study on Improved Caching by Adaptive and Partial Aggressive Prefetching

This paper gives the observed study to investigate the advantages over adaptive prefetching with proxy caching for large multimedia streaming. The adaptive and partial prefetching method fetch the media chunks dynamically based on the user access pattern in the proxy servers and updates the current access pattern in to media server. The study analyzed the proxy caching study of iRcache and appl...

Exploring the Bounds of Web Latency Reduction from Caching and Prefetching

Prefetching and caching are techniques commonly used in I/O systems to reduce latency. Many researchers have advocated the use of caching and prefetching to reduce latency in the Web. We derive several bounds on the performance improvements seen from these techniques, and then use traces of Web proxy activity taken at Digital Equipment Corporation to quantify these bounds. We found that for the...

A Trace-Driven Comparison of Algorithms for Parallel Prefetching and Caching (CMU-CS-96-174)

High-performance I/O systems depend on prefetching and caching in order to deliver good performance to applications. These two techniques have generally been considered in isolation, even though there are signi cant interactions between them; a block prefetched too early reduces the e ectiveness of the cache, while a block cached too long reduces the effectiveness of prefetching. In this paper ...

FLAP: Flash-aware Prefetching for Improving SSD-based Disk Cache

In modern enterprise storage systems, there is a trend that using NAND flash based solid state disks (SSDs) as a second-level disk cache to reduce the slow access to hard disk drives (HDDs) by caching the hot data of HDDs with SSDs. However, using SSDs for both caching and prefetching has rarely been discussed due to the performance penalty caused by unsuccessful prefetching, including garbage ...
