Sammanfattning
In this study, some research questions need to be answered. The first issue is how to define zappers, zapping problem and zapping time, trying to find the parameters that affect the concepts mentioned before. The impact of zappers on network traffic, prefetching and caching is another issue that will be explained and examined in order to search for a good solution for this problem. Another thing that needs to be considered is looking for the best prefetching strategy to be used to predict which content each user probably will choose or is interested in. <p>The objectives of this project can be summarized as follows: <ul><li> The first goal is to define user groups according to prefetching and caching strategies of adaptation to each user profile. Two user groups can be defined, the first one is loyal users, and the second one is impatient users (zappers). However, there are some users who may sometimes change their behavior from one group to another. <li> The second goal is to study each group behavior, finding a good method to simulate and model these groups and representing their usage activity anonymously with statistical graphs that help to understand user behavior. <li> The third goal is to represent the effect of zappers on prefetching and caching, and to try to find a good solution to this problem by reducing their impact and speeding up the prefetching process efficiently. </ul>
