However, they come with some inherited deficiencies. Proxy caches provide less savings than RE systems, and RE systems have limitations related to speed, memory and storage overhead. In this paper we advocate the use of a hybrid approach, in which each type of cache acts as a module in a system with shared memory and storage space. A static scheduler precedes the cache modules and determines what types of traffic should be forwarded to which module. We also propose several optimizations for each of the modules, such that the storage and memory overhead are minimized. We evaluate the proposed system by performing a trace driven emulation. Our results indicate that a hybrid system is able to provide better savings than a proxy cache, or a standalone RE system. The hybrid system requires less memory, less disk space and provides a speed-up ratio equal to three compared to an RE system.}, booktitle={2012 ieee international conference on communications (icc)}, author={Papapanagiotou, I. and Callaway, R.

However, previous attempts at enabling application-awareness in the network have failed due to issues with security, resource allocation, and cost of deployment. The emergence of the Extensible Markup Language (XML), an open standard that enables data interoperability, along with advances in hardware, software, and networking technologies, serves as the catalyst for the development of service-oriented networking (SON). SON enables network components to become application-aware, so that they are able to understand data encoded in XML and act upon that data intelligently to make routing decisions, enforce QoS or security policies, or transform the data into an alternate representation. This paper describes the motivation behind service-oriented networking, the potential benefits of introducing application-aware network devices into service-oriented architectures, and discusses research challenges in the development of SON-enabled network appliances.}, booktitle={Globecom 2006 - 2006 ieee global telecommunications conference}, author={Callaway, R.
