2. Outline Introduction The System Model Location-Dependent Invalidation Strategies Location-Dependent Cache Replacement Policies Simulation Model Performance Evaluation Conclusion References

3. Introduction two common issues in client cache management cache invalidation scheme cache replacement policy location-dependent data location-dependent cache invalidation valid scopes We first introduce two basic location-dependent invalidation schemes Polygonal Endpoints (PE) Approximate Circle (AC) a generic method Cache-Efficiency Based scheme (CEB)

4. The System Model two distinct sets of entities mobile clients fixed hosts ( mobile support stations (MSSs)) data item value from data item Mobile clients can identify their locations using systems such as the Global Positioning System (GPS) cache data values on its local disk or in any storage system; fixed sizes and read-only

5. Location-Dependent Invalidation Strategies The advantages of the idea that attach complete/partial invalidation information two situations where validity checking is necessary cache replacement policies The Polygonal Endpoints (PE) Scheme a straightforward way The Approximate Circle (AC) Scheme the overhead of this scheme can be minimized 56 bytes => 12 bytes

6. Location-Dependent Invalidation Strategies The Caching-Efficiency-Based (CEB) Method

7. Location-Dependent Cache Replacement Policies Data Distance the distance between the current location of a mobile client and the valid scope of a data value Valid Scope Area the geometric area of the valid scope of a data value proposed PA and PAID policies Probability Area (PA) Probability Area Inverse Distance (PAID)

8. Simulation Model System Execution Model 110 points randomly distributed in a square Euclidean space the locations of 185 hospitals in the Southern California area Server Execution Model Client Execution Model
