Web Traffic/Latency Reduction Techniques

Past researchers have developed many techniques for web traffic/latency reduction. This book contains survey of various methods used for enhancing the performance of the web. This book also contains description of some newly proposed methods for accessing the web almost instantly. A browser aware clustered cache sharing architecture is proposed for reducing the web traffic and latency. In this architecture, proxy servers are grouped into clusters and one proxy is elected as coordinator for each cluster. The coordinator proxy is elected in distributed manner to survive from failures. A dynamic pre-fetching technique is proposed in which web caching and pre-fetching techniques are integrated together to save memory space and reduce response time. An adaptive traffic reduction technique is proposed for providing an efficient access to the web sites by utilizing the existing web traffic and latency reduction methods effectively. Using adaptive traffic reduction technique, cache hit ratio is increased and latency is very much reduced.
