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.

Caching is a useful technique to improve the response time by reducing contention of requests in mobile computing environments with a narrow bandwidth. in the traditional cache-based systems, to improve the hit ratio has been usually one of main concerns for the time. However, in mobile computing environments, it is necessary to consider the cost of cache miss as well as the hit ratio. In this paper, we propose a new cache replacement strategy in pull-based data dissemination systems. Then, we evaluate performance of the proposed strategy by a simulation approach. The proposed strategy considers both the popularity and the wating time together, so the page with the smallest value of multiplying popularity by waiting time is selected as a victim.

The effectiveness of buffer cache replacement algorithms is critical to the performance of I/O systems. In this paper, we propose the degree of inter-reference gap (DIG) based block replacement scheme that retains merits of the least recently used (LRU) such as simple implementation and good cache hit ratio (CHR) for general patterns of references, and improves CHR further. In the proposed scheme, cache blocks with low DIGs are distinguished from blocks with high DIGs and the replacement block is selected among high DIGs blocks as done in the low inter-reference recency set (LIRS) scheme. Thus, by having the effect of the partitioning the cache memory dynamically based on DIGs, CHR is improved. Trace-driven simulation is employed to verified the superiority of the DIG based scheme and shows that the performance improves up to about 175% compared to the LRU scheme and 3% compared to the LIRS scheme for the same traces.

Because of explosive growth in demand for web-based multimedia applications, proper proxy caching for large multimedia object (especially video) has become needed. For a video object which is much larger in size and has different access characteristics than the traditional web object such as image and text, caching the whole video file as a single web object is not efficient for the proxy cache. In this paper, we propose a proxy caching strategy with the constant-sized segment for video file and an improved proxy cache replacement policy. Through the event-driven simulation under various conditions, we show that our proposal is more efficient than the variable-sized segment strategy which has been proven to have higher hit ratio than other traditional proxy cache strategies.

Existing single cache structure has shown difference of hit-ratio according to individually replacement strategy However. It needs new improved cache structure for reducing network traffic and providing advanced hit-ratio. Therefore, this Paper design push agent model using dual cache for increasing hit-ratio by reducing server overload and network traffic by repetition request of persistent and identical information. In this model proposes dual cache structure to do achievement replace gradual cache using by two caches storage space for reducing server overload and network traffic. Also, we show new cache replace techniques and algorithms which executes data update and delete based on replace strategy of Log(Size) +LRU, LFU and PLC for effectiveness of data search in cache. And through an experiment, it evaluates Performance of dual cache push agent model.

pull 기반의 데이터 방송 환경에서는 클라이언트의 데이터 요청을 최소화하기 위하여 캐쉬의 도입이 특히 필요하다. 이러한 환경에서 캐쉬의 도입 효과를 극대화하기 위해서는 히트율 뿐만 아니라 미스 비용도 고려한 효율적인 캐쉬 대체 전략의 수립이 무엇보다도 시스템 성능에 중요한 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 클라이언트의 데이터 액세스 빈도수 및 대기 시간 등을 고려하면서 최신성을 합께 반영하는 캐쉬 대체 전략을 제안한다.

In the on-demand services like AOD(Audio On Demand) over the internet, existing operating systems cannot serve repeatedly requested data efficiently. This paper proposes a web cache architecture. It predicts the songs to be requested in near future, based on the intervals between the requests in the past on the same song and keeps the songs in the web cache. For the replacement strategy of the web cache, LFRR(Least Frequently Requested Recently) is proposed. LFRR replaces the song that has less probability to be requested in near future. The average of the intervals between the requests in the past and the new request is used as the probability of the requests. It is more likely to be requested in near future as the average is less. The web cache decreases the number of disk access extremely, and support to serve more users with restricted resources. From the simulation result based on the data at the AOD site currently operating, it is shown that the high performance enhancement is achieved.

Multimedia applications tend to access their data as a streaming pattern with regular intervals. This characteristic can be utilized in prefetching the multimedia data into cache memory so as to reduce their execution speeds. The reference-prediction prefetch algorithm predicts the memory address that seems to be used in the next time based on the previous history of memory references stored in the prediction reference table. This paper proposes a strategy to manipulate the reference prediction table which contains all of the data reference instructions to scalar and streaming data. We have recognized that the scalar reference instructions do not contribute to the data prefetching algorithm. Therefore, when replacing an element in the reference prediction table, the proposed algorithm preferentially selects the scalar reference instruction before the stream reference instruction. It makes the stream reference instruction to stay for a long time compared to the FIFO replacement policy, and eventually improves the performance of data prefetching.

Continuous media objects, due to large volume and real-time consiraints in their delivery,are likely to consume much network andwidth Generally, proxy servers are used to hold the fiequently requested objects so as to reduce the network traffic to the central server but most of them are designed for text and image dae that they do not go well with continuous media data. So, in this paper, we propose a two-layered network cache management policy for continuous media object delivery on the wide area networks. With the proposed cache management scheme,in cach LAN, there exists one LAN cache and each LAN is further devided into a group of sub-LANs, each of which also has its own sub-LAN eache. Further, each object is also partitioned into two parts the front-end and rear-end partition. they can be loaded in the same cache or separately in different network caches according to their access frequencics. By doing so, cache replacement overhead could be educed as compared to the case of the full size daa allocation and replacement , this eventually reduces the backbone network traffic to the origin server.

It is impossible to overwrite on an already allocated page in SSDs, so whenever a write operation occurs a page replacement with a clean page is required. To resolve this problem, SSDs have an internal flash translation layer called FTL that maps logical pages managed by a file system of operating system to currently allocated physical pages. SSD pages discarded due to write operations must be recycled through initialization, but since the number of initialization times is limited the FTL provides a caching function to reduce the number of writes in addition to the page mapping function, which is a core function. In this study, we focus on the FTL cache methodologies reducing the number of page writes and analyze the related algorithms, and propose a write-only cache strategy. As a result of experimenting with the write-only cache using a simulator, it showed an improvement of up to 29%.
