Abstract

The idea of content delivery services was proposed in 1994 by Hans-Werner Braun and kc claffy, who outlined many basic principles, which are still valid today. This paper presents some recent advances in content delivery technologies including client-sensitive DNS redirection, dynamic content acceleration, improved caching techniques and value-added services based on Web usage mining.
