Abstract:


This research aims at caching non-interactive dynamic contents such as news and weather, and blogs for read only users. We think that there is no problem for users even if they browse these dynamic contents in several seconds later. However, practical use of cached dynamic contents requires quick cache update. We have developed Priority Access Mechanism and Priority Access Management Mechanism. Priority Access Mechanism assigns the quota of the computer resource to handle access from cache servers independently of other accesses. By this mechanism, Web server can respond to cache servers quickly even if there is huge amount of other requests. Priority Access Management Mechanism registers new cache server and client from which accesses to be recognized as priority access. By registering client, users can update their page using Web interface without stress. This paper describes design, implementation and evaluation of Priority Access Mechanism, and Priority Access Management Mechanism. Through experiments, we confirm that it is possible to adjust the quota of the computer resources to process accesses from cache server, cache server can update contents in a short time and respond to users quickly, and cache server and client can be registered dynamically.
