Abstract
As different from wired internet, wireless internet has limitations due to the following characteristics; low bandwidth, frequent disconnection, low computing power, small screen in user terminal, and user mobility. Also, wireless internet server should be scalable to handle a large scale traffic due to rapidly growing users. Wireless proxy servers are used for the wireless internet because their caching and transcoding functions are helpful to overcome the above limitation. TranSend was proposed as a clustering based wireless proxy server but its scalability is difficult to achieve because there is no systematic way to do it. In this Paper. we proposed a clustering based wireless internet proxy server which can be scalable in a systematic way. We performed experiments using 16 PCs and experimental results show 32.17% performance improvement of the proposed system compared to TranSend system.
