Abstract:
Data caching is an important technique in mobile computing environments for improving data
availability and access latencies particularly because these computing environments are characterized
by narrow bandwidth wireless links and frequent disconnections. Cache replacement policy plays a vital
role to improve the performance in a cached mobile environment, since the amount of data stored in a
client cache is small. In this paper we reviewed some of the well known cache replacement policies
proposed for mobile data caches. We made a comparison between these policies after classifying them
based on the criteria used for evicting documents. In addition, this paper suggests some alternative
techniques for cache replacement
