Abstract

Cette invention se rapporte à une structure de mémoire cache d'un appareil client www (world wide web), servant à améliorer l'efficacité d'utilisation et à réduire le temps d'accès aux informations. Une telle mémoire cache est constituée dans une mémoire HDD ou DVD-RAM sous le contrôle d'un programme chache web et une copie des informations interrogées est stockée dans cette mémoire. Un répertoire de la mémoire cache est géré par une table de gestion de mémoire cache web, et le contrôle s'effectue pour que les entrées nécessaires au contenu de la mémoire cache et à la table de gestion soient stockées avant que la mémoire DDD-RAM ne soit retirée de l'appareil. L'exploitation par le client peut se poursuivre sans difficulté par chargement de la mémoire DDD-RAM dans un autre appareil client, ou, si un fournisseur d'informations stocke les informations dans la mémoire cache web pour les fournir ensuite, ces informations peuvent être explorées par le même URL que l'accès www.
