Introducing Group Participation Support into P2P Web Caching Systems

In this paper, we introduce group participation support into decentralized peer-to-peer (P2P) Web caching systems. The support allows P2P Web caching systems to have more participators, and as a result, realizes highly scalable caching systems. An implementation design of systems is described in this paper. Some experimental results show that every node in our system can get better performance by the introduction of group participation support.
