Simulation is a common technique used by Web researchers and provides many benefits. Verification and validation of a simulator are essential if the results of those simulations a...
We introduce the aggregating cache, and demonstrate how it can be used to reduce the number of file retrieval requests made by a caching client, improving storage system performan...
A network emulator, such as the Internet Protocol Traffic and Network Emulator (IP-TNE), enables real applications running on external hosts to interact via a virtual network mode...
This paper uses trace-driven simulations to evaluate the performance of different cache management techniques for multi-level Web proxy caching hierarchies. In particular, the exp...
