Abstract

The efficacy of a fragment-based caching system fundamentally depends on the fragments’ definition and the bringing into play of mechanisms that improve reuse and guarantee the consistency of the cache content (notably “purification” and invalidation mechanisms). Existing caching systems assume that the administrator provides the required configuration data manually, which is likely to be a heavy, time-consuming task and one that is prone to human error. This paper proposes a tool that helps the administrator to cope with these issues, by automating the systematic tasks and proposing a default fragmentation with the prerequisite reuse and invalidation directives, that may either be augmented or overwritten if necessary.
