Proposed ALFUR using intelegent agent comparing with LFU, LRU, SIZE and PCCIA cache replacement techniques

Abstract

Web cache replacement plays important role in increasing the performance and speed of browsing web sites using internet. This paper highlights a new proposed Average Least Frequency Used Removal (ALFUR) and compares it with web cache replacement techniques like (LFU, LRU, SIZE, and PCCIA). Hit Ratio (HR) and Byte Hit Ratio (BHR) were used to measure the performance of these algorithms, and it was found that ALFUR technique has the best Hit Ratio and Byte Hit Ratio since it has the highest values for HR & BHR when cache size was 500Mb.
