Abstract: Web caching and Web pre-fetching are two important techniques for improving the performance of Web based information retrieval system. These two techniques would complement each other, since Web caching provides temporal locality whereas Web pre-fetching provides spatial locality of Web objects. However, if the web caching and pre-fetching are integrated inefficiently, this might cause increasing the network traffic as well as the Web server load. Conventional policies are most suitable only for memory caching since it involves fixed page size. But when one deals with web caching which involves pages of different size. Hence one need an efficient algorithm that works better in web cache environment. Moreover conventional replacement policies are not suitable in clustering based pre-fetching environment since multiple objects were pre-fetched. Hence, it cannot be handled by conventional algorithms. Therefore, care must be taken while integrating web caching with web pre-fetching technique in order to overcome these limitations. In this paper, novel algorithms have been proposed for integrating web caching with clustering based pre-fetching technique. Here Modified ART1 has been used for clustering based pre-fetching technique. The proposed algorithm outperforms the traditional algorithms in terms of hit rate and number of objects to be pre-fetched. Hence saves bandwidth.
