Abstract :
Academic and corporate communities have been dedicating considerable effort to World Wide Web caching. When correctly deployed, Web caching systems can lead to significant bandwidth savings, server load balancing, perceived network latency reduction, and higher content availability. We survey the state of the art in caching designs, presenting a taxonomy of architectures and describing a variety of specific trends and techniques
