Abstract
Future access to web-based content is likely to be dominated by two trends: (a) increasing amounts of dynamic, personalized content, and (b) a significant growth in “on-the-move” access using various mobile resource-constrained devices. These trends point to a situation where a user would have ubiquitous access to content, but require that content be efficiently delivered to the user irrespective of location, and in a form most suited to the user’s end device. Unfortunately, classical caching and transcoding solutions do not work well together, necessitating a new caching architecture built from the ground-up to handle problems caused by dynamic content, transcoded versions of objects, and the nomadic nature of users. This paper describes the goals and architecture of such a system: CONCA, an architecture for Consistent Nomadic Content Access.
