This paper focuses on a hash-based, distributed Wet caching network that eliminates inter-cache communication. An agent program on cache servers, a mapping program on the DNS server, and other components comprised in a distributed Web caching network were modified and developed to implement a so-called "consistent" hashing. Also, a dynamic load balancing algorithm is proposed to address the load-balancing problem that is a key performance issue on distributed architectures. This algorithm effectively balances the load among cache servers by distributing the calculated amount of mapping items that have higher popularity than others. Therefore, this developed network can resolve the imbalanced load that is caused by a variable page popularity, a non-uniform distribution of a hash-based mapping, and a variation of cache servers.

Mobile Device-to-Device (D2D) caching networks can transmit multimedia data to users directly without passing through any network infrastructure by storing popular multimedia contents in advance that are popular among many mobile users at caching server devices (CSDs) in distributed manners. Thus, mobile D2D caching networks can significantly reduce backhaul traffic in wired networks and service latency time of mobile users. In this paper, we propose an efficient transmission scheme that can enhance the transmission efficiency of mobile D2D caching networks by using multiple CSDs that are caching the contents that are popular among mobile users. By sorting the multiple CSDs that are caching a content that mobile users want to receive according to their channel gains, the proposed scheme can reduce the complexity of algorithm significantly, compared to an optimal scheme based on Brute-force searching, and can also obtain much higher network transmission efficiency than the existing Blanket and Opportunistic transmission schemes.

In this paper, we propose BLOCS algorithm to find sequence of data that should be saved in cache device of hybrid storage system which uses SSD as a cache device. BLOCS algorithm which uses a sequence pattern mining scheme, creates a set of frequently requested sectors with respect to requested order of sectors. To compare the performance of the proposed scheme, we introduce Distance (DIST) based scheme, Request Frequency (FREQ) based scheme, and Frequency times Size (F-S) based scheme. We measure the hit ratio and I/O latency of different caching schemes using hybrid storage caching simulator. We acquired booting workload along with ten scenarios of launching applications and use the workloads as input to the cache simulator. After experiment with booting workload, we find that BLOCS scheme gives hit ratio of 61% which is about 15% higher than the least performing DIST scheme.

The use of a cache for storing and processing of Web objects is becoming larger. Also, many studies on the efficient management of the storing scope of caches are being done. Web caching algorithms have many differences from traditional algorithms. Particularly, heterogeneity of Web objects that are processing units of Web caching, and a variation of Web object reference characteristic with time are the important causes of the decrease the performance of existing algorithms. In this study, we proposed the new web-caching algorithm. A heterogeneity variation of an object can be reduced as the proposed method dividedly managing Web objects and a cache scope with heterogeneity, and it is adaptively reflecting a variation of object reference characteristics with the flowing of time. In the experiments, we verified that the performance of the proposed method was more improved than existing algorithms through the two experiment models which considered heterogeneity of an object.

Recently, Portable Internet being standardized provides fast movement with wider service range than wireless LAN does. If Portable Internet service starts, many people will use Portable Internet and thus wireless traffic is going to increase. In Portable Internet, it is important to reduce handover latency to provide user with satisfactory service when handover occurs. In IEEE 802.16e, MSS sends its own security context information to one Base Station which it will move to reduce handover latency. But this is not suitable in the situation that the BS doesn't know the security context. To reduce handover latency of proactive caching method that is to send security context information to adjacency Base Stations in advance has been proposed by[4]. In this paper we propose effective traffic management algorithm to reduce signaling network traffic caused by proactive caching method.

Information-centric networks operate under the assumption that all network components have built-in caching capabilities. Integrating the caching strategies of information centric networking (ICN) with wireless virtualization improves the gain of virtual infrastructure content caching. In this paper, we propose a framework for software-defined information centric virtualized wireless device-to-device (D2D) networks. Enabling D2D communications in virtualized ICN increases the spectral efficiency due to reuse and proximity gains while the software-defined network (SDN) as a platform also simplifies the computational overhead. In this framework, we propose a joint virtual resource and cache allocation solution for latency-sensitive applications in the next-generation cellular networks. As the formulated problem is NP-hard, we design low-complexity heuristic algorithms which are intuitive and efficient. In our proposed framework, different services can share a pool of infrastructure items. We evaluate our proposed framework and algorithm through extensive simulations. The results demonstrate significant improvements in terms of visiting latency, end user QoE, InP resource utilization and MVNO utility gain.

Caching mechanisms have been studied extensively to buffer the speed gap of hierarchical storages in the context of cache memory, paging system, and buffer management system. As the wide-area distributed environments such as the WWW extend broadly, caching of remote objects becomes more and more important. In the wide-area distributed environments, the cost and the benefit of caching an object is not uniform due to the location of the object; which should be considered in the cache replacement algorithms. For online operation, the time complexity of the replacement algorithm should not be excessive. To date, most replacement algorithms for the wide-area distributed environments do not meet both the non-uniformity of objects and the time complexity constraint. This paper proposes a replacement algorithm which considers the non-uniformity of objects properly; it also allows for an efficient implementation. Trace-driven simulations show that proposed algorithm outperforms existing replacement algorithms.

Because of multi-hop wireless communication, P2P applications in ad hoc networks suffer poor performance. We Propose neighbor caching strategy to overcome this shortcoming and show it is more efficient than self caching that nodes store data in theirs own cache individually. A node can extend its caching storage instantaneously with neighbor caching by borrowing the storage from idle neighbors, so overcome multi-hop wireless communications with data source long distance away from itself. We also present the ranking based prediction that selects the most appropriate neighbor which data can be stored in. The node that uses the ranking based prediction can select the neighbor that has high possibility to keep data for a long time and avoid caching the low ranked data. Therefore the ranking based prediction improves the throughput of neighbor caching. In the simulation results, we observe that neighbor caching has better performance, as large as network size, as long as idle time, and as small as cache size. We also show the ranking based prediction is an adaptive algorithm that adjusts times of data movement into the neighbor, so makes neighbor caching flexible according to the idleness of nodes

In distributed file-systems, cooperative caching algorithm which owns the data cached at each node jointly is used to reduce an expense of disk access. Cooperative caching algorithm is the method that increases a cache hit-ratio and decrease a disk access as it holds the cache information of distributed systems in common and makes cache larger virtually. Recently, several cooperative caching algorithms decrease the message costs by using approximate information of the cache and increase the cache hit-ratio by using local and global cache fields dynamically. And they have an advantage that increases the whole field hit-ratio by sending a replaced buffer to the idle node on buffers replacement in order to maintain the replaced cache in the cache field. However the wrong approximate information deteriorates the performance, the consistency maintenance goes to great expense to exchange messages and the cost that manages Age-information of each node to choose the idle node increases. In this thesis, we propose a cooperative cache algorithm that maintains correct cache information, minimizes the maintenance cost for consistency and the management cost for buffer Age-information. Also, we show the superiority of our algorithm through the performance evaluation.
