  • The recent rapid growth of mobile network traffic places multi-access edge computing in an important position to reduce network load and improve network capacity and service quality. Contrasting with traditional mobile cloud computing, multi-access edge computing includes a base station cooperative cache layer and user cooperative cache layer. Selecting the most appropriate cache content according to actual needs and determining the most appropriate location to optimize the cache performance have emerged as serious issues in multi-access edge computing that must be solved urgently. For this reason, a cache placement algorithm based on comprehensive utility in big data multi-access edge computing (CPBCU) is proposed in this work. Firstly, the cache value generated by cache placement is calculated using the cache capacity, data popularity, and node replacement rate. Secondly, the cache placement problem is then modeled according to the cache value, data object acquisition, and replacement cost. The cache placement model is then transformed into a combinatorial optimization problem and the cache objects are placed on the appropriate data nodes using tabu search algorithm. Finally, to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the algorithm, a multi-access edge computing experimental environment is built. Experimental results show that CPBCU provides a significant improvement in cache service rate, data response time, and replacement number compared with other cache placement algorithms.

  • Efficient using of web cache is becoming important factor that decide system management efficiency in web-Based system. Cache performance depends heavily on replacement algorithms, which dynamically select a suitable subset of objects for caching in a finite space. However, replacement algorithm on web cache has many differences than traditional replacement algorithm. In this paper, a web-caching algorithm is proposed for efficient operation of web base system. The algorithm is designed based on a divided scope that considered size reference characteristic and heterogeneity on web object. The performance of the algorithm is analyzed with an experiment. With the experiment results, the algorithm is compared with previous replacement algorithms, and its performance is confirmed ith an improvement of response speed.

  • This paper describes the improvement of web cache server by scoping in replacement algorithm of data which are collected from the clients. We have found that each replacement algorithm is suitable for each type of data in the web pages. Therefore, we introduce the mechanism to select the replacement algorithm depending on the size of data called the Replacement Algorithm Selection Mechanism (RASM). RASM allows the web cache server to have the suitable replacement algorithm for each type of data. As the result, the byte hit ratio of web cache server can be increased and the congestion in the network can be alleviated.

  • Although flash disks are being used widely instead of hard disks, it is difficult to optimize for effective utilization of flash disks because overwrite in place is impossible and the power consumption and time required for read, write, and erase operations are all different. One of these optimization issues is a cache management strategy to minimize write operations. The cache operates at two levels: an operating system equipped with flash disks and a translation layer within the flash disk. Most studies deal with the operating system-level cache strategy. In this study, we implement and analyse the DPW-LRU algorithm which is one of the recently proposed operating system cache replacement algorithms to apply to FTL, and grope with some improvements. As a result of the experiment, the DPW-LRU algorithm maintained superiority even in the FTL environment, and showed better performance with a slight improvement.

  • Web cache, which is functionally another word of proxy server, is located between client and server. Web cache has a limited storage area although it has broad bandwidth between client and proxy server, which are usually connected through LAN. Because of limited storage capacity, existing objects in web cache can be deleted for new objects by some rules called replacement algorithm. Hit rate and byte-hit rate are general metrics to evaluate replacement algorithms. Most of the replacement algorithms do satisfy only one metric, or sometimes none of them. In this paper, we propose two replacement algorithms to achieve both high hit rate and byte-hit rate with great satisfaction. In the first algorithm, the cache is appropriately partitioned according to file types as a basic model. In the second algorithm, the cache is composed of two levels; the upper level cache is managed by the basic algorithm, but the lower level is collectively used for all types of files as a shared area. To show the performance of the proposed algorithms, we evaluate hit rate and byte-hit rate of the proposed replacement algorithms using the trace driven simulation.

  • With the popularity of utilization of the Internet among people, the amount of data in the network rapidly increased. So that, the fall of response time from WWW server, which is caused by the network traffic and the burden on m server, has become more of an issue. This problem is encouraged the rearch by redundancy of requesting the same pages by many people, even though they browse the same the ones. To reduce these redundancy, WWW cache server is used commonly in order to store m page data and reuse them. However, the technical uses of WWW cache that different from CPU and Disk cache, is known for its difficulty of improving the cache hit rate. Consecuently, it is difficult to choose effective WWW data to be stored from all data flowing through the WWW cache server. On the other hand, there are room for improvement in commonly used cache replacement algorithms by WWW cache server. In our study, we try to realize a WWW cache server that stresses on the improvement of the stresses of response time. To this end, we propose the new cache replacement algorithm by focusing on the utilizable information of network distance from the WWW cache server to WWW server that possessing the page data of the user requesting.

  • Cache replacement algorithms have been developed in order to reduce miss counts. In modern processors, the performance gap between the processor and main memory has been increasing, creating a more important role for cache replacement policies. The Least Recently Used (LRU) policy is one of the most common policies used in modern processors. However, recent research has shown that the performance gap between the LRU and the theoretical optimal replacement algorithm (OPT) is large. Although LRU replacement has been proven to be adequate over and over again, the OPT/LRU performance gap is continuously widening as the cache associativity becomes large. In this study, we observed that there is a potential chance to improve cache performance based on existing LRU mechanisms. We propose a method that enhances the performance of the LRU replacement algorithm based on the access proportion among the lines in a cache set during a period of two successive replacement actions that make the final replacement action. Our experimental results reveals that the proposed method reduced the average miss rate of the baseline 512KB L2 cache by 15 percent when compared to conventional LRU. In addition, the performance of the processor that applied our proposed cache replacement policy improved by 4.7 percent over LRU, on average.

  • PRAM is being considered as a potential successor to DRAM because of its characteristics such as byte-addressability, non-volatility, and high density. To gain its benefits, buffer cache replacement algorithm based on PRAM has been actively studied. However, most of the previous studies on buffer cache replacement algorithm limitedly exploit the byte-level performance of PRAM by focusing its limited lifetime and slower access latency compared to DRAM. In this paper, we propose a novel buffer cache replacement algorithm that fully considers the byte-level performance of PRAM and the performance of secondary storage. To take advantage of small size write on PRAM, proposed scheme keeps pages, which are frequently accessed with a small size write, on PRAM and allows the selective page migration from DRAM to PRAM. As a result, our scheme significantly reduces the number of PRAM writes. Our experimental results indicate for real workloads that our scheme reduces the number of PRAM writes by up to 92% and improves its performance by up to 62% compared to CLOCK.

  • In this paper, we propose practical results for cache replacement policy by measuring cache hit and search time for each replacement algorithm through cache simulation. Thus, the structure of each cache memory and the four types of alternative policies of FIFO, LFU, LRU and Random were implemented in software to analyze the characteristics of each technique. The paper experiment showed that the LRU algorithm showed hit rate and search time of 36.044% and 577.936ns in uniform distribution, 45.636% and 504.692ns in deflection distribution, while the FIFO algorithm showed similar performance to the LRU algorithm at 36.078% and 554.772ns in even distribution and 45.662% and 489.574ns in bias distribution. Then LFU followed, Random algorithm was measured at 30.042% and 622.866ns at even distribution, 36.36% at deflection distribution and 553.878ns at lowest performance. The LRU replacement method commonly used in cache memory has the complexity of implementation, but it is the most efficient alternative to conventional alternative algorithms, indicating that it is a reasonable alternative method considering the reference information of data.
