Abstract

The last few years have witnessed an explosion of content-rich services over the Internet, and thereby content distribution itself grows into one of the most important Internet applications. Content delivery networks or content distribution networks (CDNs) first emerged to address the efficiency of content distribution over the Web for the end users, since content delivery has become important for improvement of Web performance [53]. In order to improve accessibility, decrease access delay, maximize bandwidth utilization, and maintain correctness for the users, CDN distributes content to a group of geographically dispersed cache servers. Note that these servers are located as close as possible to the users.
