Recent machine learning-based caching algorithm have shown promise. Among them, Learning-FromOPT (LFO) is the state-of-the-art supervised learning caching algorithm. LFO has a parameter named Window Size, which defines how often the algorithm generates a new machine-learning model. While using a small window size allows the algorithm to be more adaptive to changes in request behaviors, experimenting with LFO revealed that the performance of LFO suffers dramatically with small window sizes. This paper proposes LFO2, an improved LFO algorithm, which achieves high object hit ratios (OHR) with small window sizes. This results show a 9% OHR increase with LFO2. As the next step, the machine-learning parameters will be investigated for tuning opportunities to further enhance performance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
