Abstract :
In this paper, web response time is utilized to indicate the performance of web cache in asymmetrical wireless network. The impacts of WAN delay, user load level and link asymmetries on web response time are investigated in our evaluation. Our study demonstrated that caching scheme performs poorly when uplink quality degraded. Based on the analysis of correlations between cache performance and link characteristics, we proposed some possible methods to improve cache performance in asymmetrical wireless environments.
