Caching search engine query results
In this paper we explore the problem of Caching of Search Engine Query Results in order to reduce the computing and I/O requirements
needed to support the functionality of a search engine of the World Wide Web.
We study query traces from the EXCITE search engine and show that they have a significant amount of temporal locality that is, a
significant percentage of the queries have been submitted more than once by the same or a different user. Using trace-driven simulation we
demonstrate that medium-size caches can hold the results of most of the frequently submitted queries. Finally, we compare the effectiveness
of static and dynamic caching and conclude that although dynamic caching can use large caches more effectively, static caching can perform
better for (very) small caches. q 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved
