A novel caching algorithm for VoD proxy implementation and its evaluation including a new set of metrics for efficiency analysis
Video on demand (VoD) is a fast-growing digital service that requires a substantial amount of hardware resources for its implementation. To reduce the costs of running this service, an alternative is to use proxies that cache the most important portions of the video collection in order to meet the demand for this content in place of the primary server of the VoD system.
