Abstract

Studies the cache performance in a remote caching architecture. The authors develop a set of distributed object replication policies that are designed to implement different optimization goals. Each site is responsible for local cache decisions, and modifies cache contents in response to decisions made by other sites. The authors use the optimal and greedy policies as upper and lower bounds, respectively, for performance in this environment. Critical system parameters are identified, and their effect on system performance studied. Performance of the distributed algorithms is found to be close to optimal, while that of the greedy algorithms is far from optimal.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
