ABSTRACT
Our goal in this paper is to design cost-aware result caching approaches for meta-search engines. We introduce different levels of eviction, namely, query-, resource- and entry-level, based on the granularity of the entries to be evicted from the cache when it is full. We also propose a novel entry-level caching approach that is tailored for the meta-search scenario and superior to alternative approaches.

Improved techniques for result caching in web search engines
WWW '09: Proceedings of the 18th international conference on World wide webQuery processing is a major cost factor in operating large web search engines. In this paper, we study query result caching, one of the main techniques used to optimize query processing performance. Our first contribution is a study of result caching as ...
A Popularity-Driven Caching Scheme for Meta-search Engines: An Empirical Study
DEXA '01: Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Database and Expert Systems ApplicationsCaching issues in meta-search engines are considered. We propose a popularity-driven cache algorithm that utilizes both popularities and reference counters of queries to determine cache data to be purged. We show how to calculate query popularity. ...
A machine learning approach for result caching in web search engines
To the best of our knowledge, our work is therst in literature to apply machine learning techniques to the result caching problem in search engines, for both static, dynamic, and state-of-the-art static-dynamic cache organizations.We evaluate a large ...
