Abstract

In this paper, we study the problem of caching search results with a rapid rate of their degradation. We suggest a new caching algorithm, which is based on queries’ frequencies and the predicted staleness of cached results. We also introduce a new performance metric of caching algorithms called staleness degree, which measures the level of degradation of a cached result. In the case of frequently changing search results, this metric is more sensitive to those changes than the previously used stale traffic ratio.
