Abstract :
We explore how the structure of Webspace can be used for accelerated Web prefetch. We have conducted experiments based on a novel hyperspace aware prefetch proxy and have studied the prefetch performance on several dominant hyperspace patterns. We assess the system´s responsiveness and background loads for various user interaction duration, surfing and prefetch sequences. The results show that Webspace awareness can help in improving prefetch performance. We also provide an interesting insight toward a framework where the professional content developers can gain more control towards authoring prefetch friendly collection for increased site responsiveness.
