Abstract :
It was decided that the next-generation protocol SPDY proposed by Google would be used as a basis of the technical specification of the HTTP/2.0 protocol, which has been studied in the IETF standardization process. SPDY is a protocol to realize high-speed Web access by using the SPDY session that has been established between the client and the Web server for transmitting and receiving page resources. Since a modern Web page usually consists of multiple page resources that are stored in multiple domains (multi-domain configuration), the client has to establish multiple SPDY sessions with multiple Web servers. In this case, SPDY is not able to realize high-speed Web access since it takes several seconds to establish multiple SPDY sessions in a mobile environment with high latency. In this paper, we propose a SPDY accelerator that can considerably accelerate Web access speed by combining the SPDY protocol and cache system even in a multi-domain configuration. We confirmed that the proposed system can reduce the page-loading time by one-third compared to the existing SPDY.
