Official abstract text for this publication.
There is described a method for optimizing the distribution of data objects between caches in a cache domain of a resource limited network. User requests for data objects are received at caches in the cache domain. A notification is sent from each cache at which a request is received to a cache manager. The notification reports the user request and identifies the requested data object. At the cache manager, object information including the request frequency of each requested data object and the locations of the caches at which the requests were received is collated and stored. At the cache manager, objects for distribution within the cache domain are identified on the basis of the object information. Instructions are sent from the cache manager to the caches to distribute data objects stored in those caches between themselves. The objects are classified into classes according to popularity, the classes including a high popularity class comprising objects which should be distributed to all caches in the cache domain, a medium popularity class comprising objects which should be distributed to a subset of the caches in the cache domain, and a low popularity class comprising objects which should not be distributed.
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A cache manager for controlling distribution of content stored in caches in a cache domain in a packet data network, the cache manager comprising: an object monitor configured to receive notifications from caches in the cache domain about data objects requested at a respective cache; an object database configured to collate and store object information about the requested data objects, the object information including information about the caches at…
