Enhancement of Performance of Proxy Server by Reducing Web Traffic using Web Usage Mining

Nitish Patil | Mahesh Kumar Singh

Abstract: This paper work is focused on the study of the prefetching technique applied to the World Wide Web. This technique lies in processing (e. g. , downloading) a Web request before the user actually makes it. By doing so, the waiting time perceived by the user can be reduced, which is the main goal of the Web prefetching techniques. The study of the state of the art about Web prefetching showed the heterogeneity that exists in its performance evaluation.
