Description

Information relay device and storage medium
The present invention relates to information relay device and storage unit, in particular to the information relay device that is used for the information that server computer produces on the network between Relay Server and the client computer.
The Japanese patent application No.10-361124 that present patent application was submitted to based on Dec 18th, 1998, its whole contents all is included in herein as a reference.
Be in the Distributed Computer System of representative with WWW (WWW) and FTP (file transfer protocol (FTP)) service, unique identification string of definition message block (hereinafter referred to as content) is relevant with each data content under the URL form.Client machine system (hereinafter referred to as client computer) can extract content by specified URL from server system (hereinafter referred to as server).
In some cases, when using this type systematic, between client computer and server, insert the information relay device that is called acting server.Acting server has some functions, and wherein one is exactly high-speed cache.
Utilize this caching function, the content that indicates when client computer just is stored in cache area during by acting server.By this data cache, when client computer output was watched requests for content once more, the data in the high-speed cache were returned, and were replacing between server and the server by the transmission of data by network thereby saved.This just can respond the request from client computer fast.
The operation of the high speed cache proxy server of implementing is usually at present below described.Operation under the WWW is below described.
1. when the demonstration request that receives from client computer, acting server is checked cache area.
2. if there is the copy of the content-data of client requests in the cache area, and copy is in date of expiration, and then acting server returns copy to client computer.When server obtains content, send information date of expiration.
3. if content-data is expired, then in order to check whether data are nearest data, acting server is to the last content update time of www server inquiry of storage textual content.
If the final updating time of original text consistent with the update time of copy, then acting server returns the content in the high-speed cache to client computer.
5. if the final updating time of original text is later than the update time of data in the high-speed cache, then acting server is downloaded the textual content data, and it is returned client computer, and upgrades high-speed cache.
Situation described in 2-4 is called " high-speed cache is hit ".
The condition that response is hit high-speed cache from the information acquisition request of client computer can be summarized as follows:
The content of corresponding institute request URL is present in high-speed cache (hereinafter referred to as existing).
Corresponding content in the high-speed cache and interior consistent (hereinafter referred to as brand-new) of server.
Consider the character of these conditions, just hit high-speed cache when only the copy data in high-speed cache satisfies existence and brand-new condition simultaneously.
According to dubbing system that is used for database or so-called push technology, when the relative predetermined content of the content on the server was upgraded, the client computer that comprises reproducting content was apprised of variation, and reproducting content is become nearest state.
By utilizing the push technology in the proxy server cache management, nearest content is used as the content stores of corresponding predetermined URL in cache area.Therefore, the cache hit rate of client requests is higher than common acting server, and average response time shortens when client browses.If the content on the server is often upgraded, then effect is more obvious.
Can utilize to be called the technology that intelligence is drawn, be not push technology though say it from the strict sense, still is called as push technology usually.The push technology that initiatively sends content with above-mentioned server side is opposite, and in intelligence was drawn, client-side periodically obtained content to realize the state the same with utilizing push technology apparently.
The Castanet that U.S. Marimba joint-stock company provides is an example of using intelligent pull technology on acting server.
The Castanet of Marimba joint-stock company is made up of transmitter with server capability and the tuner with client functionality.Tuner checks periodically whether the content of URL default on the corresponding tuner is upgraded on transmitter, the content of down loading updating, and on tuner, upgrade xcopy.
When sending the request of reference content, show the reproducting content on the tuner from the user.If therefore tuner is used as the acting server of WWW browser, then can realize high-speed response.In this case, if during, return copy from the content of high-speed cache on the corresponding tuner of the refer request of WWW browser.Otherwise, from original text downloaded content.
Because the internally cached content of tuner is updated periodically and is nearest state, then high-speed cache satisfies the probability of brand-new condition greater than the probability of utilizing common acting server.
Disclosed the technology of two kinds of agent process of a kind of preparation.According to this technology, first agent process has common agent functionality, and second agent process have from Internet Server download the original text data and according to write URL order the access log that first agent process generates with data storage in high-speed cache.
But the information relay device that comprises caching function has following problem.
Suppose the caching function that utilizes the aforementioned cache acting server.In this case, if the renewal frequency of textual content is lower on the server, then the caching function of high speed cache proxy server is effectively worked.If but the renewal frequency of textual content is very fast, then since high-speed cache to satisfy the probability of brand-new condition lower, so the hit rate of high-speed cache reduces.This has brought problem for the effect of proxy server cache.
In addition, if adopt above-mentioned push technology or intelligent pull technology, then have only predetermined content to duplicate.In the system of undefined textual content, the probability that high-speed cache satisfies existence condition is lower in as WWW, and hit rate reduces.If for example improve the performance relevant with existence condition by default enough big amount of content data as pushing away target, then required cache capacity is excessive.Therefore this technology is infeasible.
In the technology of preparing two kinds of agent process, owing to come cache content according to the sequential of the access log increase that obtains with first agent process, thus unless send request by client computer, high-speed cache can properly not upgrade.Even therefore textual content changed in date of expiration, client computer can not be obtained new content.
The present invention under the circumstances, and its target provides a kind of information relay device, wherein the renewal frequency of textual content is higher, and can shorten average response time in client computer when the server output information of quantification is not obtained request, of the present invention also have a target to provide a kind of storage medium.

Embodiments of the invention are below described.
(first embodiment)
Fig. 1 is the block diagram that comprises the network system of acting server, has used the information relay device according to first embodiment of the invention on the acting server.
This network system is the Internet, and wherein many server nodes 114 link to each other by public line 121 with client node 101.Client node 101 links to each other with public line 121 by proxy server nodes 103.The content requests that client node 101 sends for server node 114 to proxy server nodes 103.The information relay device 122 of this embodiment is included in the proxy server nodes 103.
In this embodiment, each node 101,103 and 114 is connected to each other.But for the present invention, these nodes interconnect by network and are not absolutely necessary.For example client node 101 and information relay device can the form with software process exist in same computing machine.
Though Fig. 1 shows in node 101,103 and 114 each, the multiple arrangement that has with node 101,103 and 114 identical topology also can exist.Each node 101,103 and 114 is the computer systems with communication function.Hardware resource of each system (for example CPU and storer) and software resource (for example control program) constitute various function implement devices shown in Figure 1.Fig. 1 shows function and implements required various data.These data storage (not shown) in storage area, for example every storer and hard disk that computing machine is interior.
The layout of each unit is below described.
Client node 101 comprises the content display part 102 with information display function such as the WWW browser.Content display part 102 obtains request from client computer to the server output content, and the content of display server transmission.
Server node 114 comprises content transmission section 115 and the content-data 116 with message sending function such as www server.
Content transmission section 115 receives request 117 or asks 118 from client computer or proxy server nodes 103, and sends content corresponding.
Content-data 116 is the one group of content that sends from content transmission section 115 when the request 117 that receives from client computer or information relay device.Content-data 116 is stored in (not shown) in the storage area.Content-data is represented to discern single content-data and content substance with the combination of ID (URL among the WWW).In the following description, ID is identical with URL.
Fig. 2 shows the URL and the ID example in transmission source.
The form of information shown in Figure 2 is to be included in the content that the identifying informations in the used request msg 117 of client node 101 or 118 obtain with appointment.
The effect of proxy server nodes 103 is equivalent to the agency of client node 101 to finish and communicating by letter of the Internet etc.In this embodiment, the information relay device is included in this server.
Information relay device 122 is preserved input information statistics 105, replication strategy knowledge 107, reproducting content URL109, content replication interval 108 and reproduced content data 110.Information relay device 122 comprises input analysis part 104, replication strategy determining section 106, duplicates and use determining section 112, request/content translator unit 113 and copy update part 111, and they carry out predefined procedure according to these data and request msg 117.
At first, input analysis part 104 is analyzed the request 117 of sending from client computer to form input information statistics 105.Input analysis part 104 uses determining section 112 to send all solicited messages to duplicating.
Input information statistics 105 is made up of the analytical information sheet that is stored in past request in the memory storage (not shown) etc.The statistical information of for example relevant with each clauses and subclauses of Fig. 3 request is stored in the form of Fig. 4.
Fig. 3 shows the example of replication strategy determining section 106 used input information statisticss and data content.
Fig. 4 shows the storage format example of input information statistics.
In the data in each clauses and subclauses of Fig. 3, the data among the URL (1), ask request that issuing time (2), total request counting (3) and request occurrence frequency (4) receive according to input analysis part 104 by analyzing or calculating and upgrade recently.The data of duplicating in the usage count (5) increase progressively when duplicating use determining section 112 (following description) use copy.
Replication strategy determining section 106 for example is defined as specific content to duplicate target and determines specific interval, by utilizing input information statistics 105, according to replication strategy knowledge 107, with specific interval copy is updated to nearest state.Replication strategy determining section 106 is determined the result to 108 outputs of content replication intervals subsequently.In this case, replication strategy knowledge 107 is the used knowledge datas of replication strategy determining section 106.This knowledge is preserved with form shown in Figure 5.It should be noted that replication strategy knowledge 107 can be changed by the user.
Fig. 5 shows the example of replication strategy knowledge content.
Below describe replication strategy determining section 106 and determine the mode of replication intervals according to each information in the replication strategy knowledge 107 of Fig. 5.
Replication strategy determining section 106 checks whether the copy of corresponding each URL satisfies the arbitrary process condition of process #1-#4 among Fig. 5.If copy satisfies one of them process condition, the replication intervals that then defines in corresponding process is output to content replication interval 108.In duplicating registration deletion processing, corresponding URL deletes from reproducting content URL109.
Before replication strategy is determined to handle, duplicating utilization rate (6) and determining preservation in the processing in replication strategy determining section 106 calculating charts 3 at strategy.
According to the process #1 among Fig. 5, be before 3 hours of current time if ask issuing time (2) recently, and duplicate utilization rate (6) that then the replication intervals with URL is set at 5 hours greater than 0.5.Under this condition, 5 hours so long time intervals will be set at interval for underlying cause.Because no matter request frequency is how, unconverted probability is higher but the copy that information relay device 122 is preserved uses always, so but in the server node 114 the change frequency expectability of corresponding contents lower.In other words, compare with the change frequency of content in this case, request frequency is higher.
According to the process #2 among Fig. 5, be before 3 hours of current time if ask issuing time (2) recently, and duplicate utilization rate (6) that then the replication intervals with URL is set at 2 hours less than 0.5.Under this condition, 2 hours so short time intervals will be set at interval for underlying cause.Because no matter request frequency is how, the utilization rate of the copy that information relay device 122 is preserved is lower, so but in the server node 114 the change frequency expectability of corresponding contents higher.In other words, compare with the change frequency of content in this case, request frequency is lower.
According to the process #3 among Fig. 5, if request occurrence frequency (4) is greater than 5 in the unit interval, and duplicate utilization rate (6) less than 0.8, then the replication intervals with URL is set at 1/3 of the frequency measurement unit interval.Under this condition, replication intervals is not to set but according to such as the request occurrence frequency with duplicate concept definition the utilization rate as single time interval.And the situation of process #3 correspondence is that the request occurrence frequency is higher, and server side content changing frequency is higher.
According to the process #4 of Fig. 5, if, then stop duplicating from current time generation request more than 3 days.In this case, duplicating the registration deletion handles.Replication strategy determining section 106 is deletion and the corresponding relevant message slot of URL from reproducting content URL109, content replication interval 108 and reproduced content data 110 therefore.
It should be noted that the replication strategy knowledge 107 among Fig. 5 is examples of various measurement knowledge sheets, therefore can adopt the another kind of knowledge of measuring.For example can add with condition " if content is fixed or fixing " and duplicate only when satisfying above-mentioned condition, stopping at process #4.In this case, have only, just delete and duplicate registration when the content that generates request and client requests in 3 days not fixedly the time.
Content replication 108 is that replication strategy determining section 106 is determined and the replication intervals data of each URL of preserving at interval.For example the replication intervals value of each URL is preserved with form shown in Figure 6.
Fig. 6 shows the content instance of URL replication intervals one by one.
Reproducting content URL109 is that replication strategy determining section 106 is determined and the conducts of preserving are duplicated and do not had scale content url list.The URL that for example duplicates object content preserves according to form shown in Figure 7.
Fig. 7 shows the example of reproducting content URL.
Reproduced content data 110 is the replication entity corresponding to URL that lists in the reproducting content URL109 and the content that is saved.For example the reproducting content entity is preserved according to form shown in Figure 8.
Fig. 8 shows the example of reproduced content data.
Copy update part 111 from server node through request/content translator unit 113 request contents at interval to upgrade the content-data 110 of each URL in the interval in 108 according to writing content replication.
Duplicate the time of using determining section 112 will be included in the content acquisition request 117 and compare, thereby determine whether to return copy or obtain new copy and return data from server node 114 to client computer 101 with the date of expiration or the update time of the content substance of corresponding reproduced content data 110 interior requests.If copy uses determining section 112 to determine to return copy to client node 101, the copy usage count in then relevant with the corresponding URL input information statistics 105 increases progressively.
Request/content translator unit 113 sends content acquisition request 118 and will return client computer 1 node 101 from the content-data of server node 114 to server node 114 according to duplicating the definite result who uses determining section 112 to obtain.If copy uses determining section 112 to determine to return copy, then request/content translator unit 113 returns copy to client node 101.
Request/content translator unit 113 will be stored in from the content-data of server node 114 in copy content-data 110 and the copy content URL109.Request/content translator unit 113 is the content and the URL that newly ask of latest copy and storage/preservations more therefore.
Below by Fig. 9,10 and 11 operation of the information relay device of the present embodiment with above-mentioned layout is described.
Fig. 9 is for explaining the process flow diagram of present embodiment request relay process.
Figure 10 determines the process flow diagram of handling for explaining the present embodiment replication strategy.
Figure 11 upgrades the process flow diagram of handling for explaining the present embodiment copy.
Request relay process, replication strategy are determined to handle and copy renewal processing is the independent asynchronous operation of carrying out.
The request relay process is at first described.
As shown in Figure 9, the request relay process is mainly finished by information relay device 122 when client node 101 issue request msgs 117.
At first, as user during to content display part 102 specified URL, client node 101 output contents show request (step s1).
The demonstration request that the user generates is sent to the input analysis part 104 (step s2) of information relay device 122 with the form from the content acquisition request 117 of content display part 102.
The content of request msg 117 is transfused to analysis part 104 to be analyzed, and the content of input information statistics 105 (1)-(4) are according to the time information renovation (step s3) of request reception.After upgrading the input information statistics (step s3), process flow diagram enters following replication strategy and determines to handle.
Duplicate the date of expiration (step s4) of using determining section 112 to calculate the copy content that is stored in corresponding URL in the copy content-data 110 according to the request content that receives through input analysis part 104 after the step s2 processing.
Can adopt the whole bag of tricks to calculate in this case date of expiration.For example the copy method of using determining section 112 to utilize is, when for example when server node 114 sends contents from being added in the expiration time on the content or changing Time Calculation date of expiration at last.
If the copy content of corresponding requests (step s5) in date of expiration then reads corresponding copy content from request/content translator unit 113.The content that reads is returned client node 101 (step s6) from request/content translator unit 113.
In addition, copy uses determining section 112 to make the copy usage count (5) in the replication strategy determining section 106 increase progressively 1 (step s7).Process flow diagram enters replication strategy subsequently and determines to handle.
If the copy content of corresponding requests expires, perhaps ask at be the content (step s5) of not duplicating, then request/content translator unit 113 is sent to server node 114 according to the server node star request msgs 118 that are included in the request msg 117.Server node 114 is with the content return message relay 122 (step s8) of request msg 118 appointments.
The content of returning from server node 114 is sent to client node 101 (step s9) from the request/content translator unit 113 of information relay device 122, and copy content-data 110 usefulness request/content translator units 113 are finished the same content update (step s10) of processing.The content of not duplicating is stored as the target (content and URL) of newly duplicating of duplicating later on.
It should be noted that after the content of latest copy content-data 110 more (step s10) process flow diagram enters replication strategy and determines to handle.
Below describe replication strategy and determine the process flow diagram of processing.Replication strategy determines that processing starts from after step s3, the s7 or s10 of Fig. 9 request relay process.
After step s3, the s7 or s10 of Fig. 9, replication strategy determining section 106 produces content replication 108 (step t1) at interval according to input information statistics 105 and replication strategy knowledge 107.
Particularly, if adopt as shown in Figure 4 the input information statistics and replication strategy knowledge as shown in Figure 5, then definite replication intervals is as follows.
At first extract the input information statistics of the URL of corresponding requests data 117 appointments.If for example that the request msg appointment is " http: ∥ www.foo.html ", then extract the information of Fig. 4 first row.
The knowledge that replication strategy determining section 106 is calculated copy utilization rate (6) subsequently and the input information statistics condition of extracting is satisfied in retrieval from replication strategy knowledge 107.Suppose that the current time is 1998/09/07/10: 00.In this case, when retrieving the data of Fig. 4 first row, the knowledge matched data of Fig. 5 first row.
Write the replication intervals that the replication intervals that finds in the knowledge is set at corresponding URL, and by replication strategy determining section 106 update content replication intervals 108.
New replication intervals is set in the above described manner.The situation of corresponding other processes described above.
In contrast, point out the end of duplicating if write replication intervals in the knowledge of discovery, then replication strategy determining section 106 from content replication at interval 108, copy content URL109 and corresponding URL and the copy content-data (step t2) of copy content-data 110 deletions.
Can stop duplicating with following another kind of method.If reproduced content data 110 is greater than preliminary dimension, then by omitting the little content of necessity by the priority information (not shown) of content from duplicate target.For example adopt and ask issuing time recently as priority information.The user also can set right of priority in addition.In this case, can delete copy content etc. by utilizing as the proxy server nodes 103 of deletion low priority copy.
The rule-based method of definite replication intervals has been described in this embodiment.But the form of input information statistics and replication strategy knowledge are not limited to this method, for example can calculate replication intervals by the multivariable analysis of input information statistics.
Below describe copy and upgrade the process flow diagram of handling.Copy upgrades to handle with request relay process and replication strategy determines to handle asynchronous carrying out.
At first, copy more new portion 111 will be stored in last doubling time in the copy content URL109 replication intervals in 108 will be relatively at interval with being stored in content replication.If the current time of a URL is replication intervals or multi-compartment more after the last doubling time, then copy update part 111 is passed on part 113 requests from server node 114 download content corresponding to request/content.
Request/content is passed on part 113 and is downloaded contents, and copy content-data 110 is downloaded data and replaces, thus latest copy (step u1) more.
After copy upgraded, copy more new portion 111 stopped preset time at interval, and the interior processing (step u2) of repeating step u1 subsequently.
As mentioned above, according to the information relay device of this embodiment of the invention have copy more new portion 111 with by with the asynchronous execution replication processes of request relay process advancing updating copy content.Therefore, can improve nearest copy content and be kept at the interior probability of information relay device, and can improve the hit rate of client requests.
This device also has replication strategy determining section 106 with according to request frequency increase/minimizing copy object content.For this reason, when finite capacity, the high content of radiation client requests frequency in the copy storage area.This can the undefined content acquisition request of client computer hit rate.
According to common pushing away (Castanet etc.) platform, have only predetermined content to be treated to and push away target, so the prior art variation of processing client side request neatly.In contrast, according to the present invention, be not automatically made and push away target owing to be included in contents in the copy content-data 110, so can realize cache handles (duplicating) flexibly.
In addition, according to the common platform that pushes away, in order to ensure the safety of cache area, must be manually from pushing away all unwanted contents of object removal.In contrast, according to the present invention, owing to each content is removed from push away target automatically according to priority settings, so can not overflow (copy content-data 110) in the cache area.
(second embodiment)
In first embodiment, when copy used determining section 112 to determine that copy has expired, request 117 was unconditionally transferred to server node 114 as request 118.
In contrast, present embodiment by check the copy content whether consistent with original paper content on the server node avoid downloading from server node 114 do not need content.
The information relay device of present embodiment has the layout identical with first embodiment, passes on the processing that part 113 finishes except having revised request/content.
Request/content is passed on part 113 and is had the layout identical with first embodiment.In addition, when when server node 114 is downloaded contents, request/content is passed on part 113 and is at first only obtained contents attribute information, and only obtains whole contents according to contents attribute information in the copy content when not being nearest.
Prepared shown in Figure 12 and 13 content of two types of contents as request msg 118.
Figure 12 shows the request example that only obtains used contents attribute information in the second embodiment of the invention.Request among Figure 12 shows that request type is that " only being attribute information " and URL are " http: ∥ www.aaa.bbb/foo.html ".
In this case, the attribute information of content comprises at least " the last transformation period of content (if content is a fresh content, then being formation time) ".
Figure 13 shows the request example that obtains whole contents.
Request among Figure 13 shows that request type is that " whole contents " and URL are " http: ∥ www.aaa.bbb/foo.html ".
Request/content is passed on part 113 the change frequency information of original paper content is added input information statistics 105.For example by under establish an equation and obtain this information:
Change frequency information=whole contents is obtained request counting/contents attribute and is obtained the request counting
Replication strategy knowledge 107 can comprise original paper content changing frequency as condition.If for example original paper content change frequency then is set at set-point with replication intervals in predetermined range.
Below by Figure 14 the operation of the present embodiment information relay device with above-mentioned layout is described.
Figure 14 is for explaining the process flow diagram of request relay process in the present embodiment.
In the operation of this embodiment, to compare with first embodiment, the request relay process changes.
If the copy content in date of expiration, is then carried out the processing (step v1-v7) similar to first embodiment.Because the step s1-s7 among Fig. 9 is consistent with step v1-v7, so repeat no more.
Expire (step v5) if determine copy, then request/content translator unit 113 sends contents attributes to server node 114 and obtains and ask 118 attribute informations (step v8) to obtain corresponding contents.
The last transformation period that request/content translator unit 113 will be included in the attribute information that obtains compares to check that whether the original paper content is than copy new (step v9) with the last doubling time of corresponding copy.
Than copy new (step v9), then obtain all the elements (step v10) if determine the original paper content from server, and latest copy content-data 110 more.In addition, change the input information statistics relevant with URL.
After obtaining all the elements (step v10), corresponding content is returned client node (step v12).
If determine that in step v9 last doubling time is later than the last change time, determine that then copy is consistent with nearest original paper content, and the copy content returned client node 101 (step v13).After this, the copy usage count increases progressively (step v14).
As mentioned above, owing to be designed to check that according to the information relay device of present embodiment of the present invention the copy content is whether consistent with original paper content on the server node, so can avoid downloading unwanted content from server node 114.Even therefore can be contemplated that and after date of expiration, also shorten the not corresponding time of changing content.
In addition, owing to can adjust replication intervals, upgrade at interval and can suitably set according to probability so clearly do not set the copy of the content of date of expiration according to the renewal frequency of original paper content.This makes that must obtain all the elements during the request relay process becomes difficult.
Only be described in the present embodiment, with to the relevant processing of the preliminary request of attribute information by the situation that receives request 117 from client node 101.But with not only can be used for the copy relay process to the relevant processing of the preliminary request of attribute information, and can be used for copy and upgrade to handle.In this case, when copy more new portion 111 determine that copies should upgrade, produce the preliminary request of attribute information, and only when content changing, just download content corresponding.
(the 3rd embodiment)
So-called intelligent pull technology is applied to first and second embodiment.But the 3rd embodiment adopts push technology.Relevant with this push technology, many throwings technology is applied to asking/and communication path between content translator unit and the content transmission section be so that server node can initiatively send data to a plurality of information relay devices.
Figure 15 is the block diagram that comprises the network system layout example of acting server, and the information relay device of third embodiment of the invention is applied to acting server.Though the information relay device 203 among Figure 15 is included in the acting server, owing to the relation between two unit is basically the same as those in the first embodiment, so no longer describe acting server.
Because the relation in the present embodiment between the used network itself, so the basic function of client node 201, proxy server nodes and server node 211 and these unit is identical with each node 101,103 and 114 among first embodiment, repeats no more herein.
Client node 201 has the layout identical with client computer 101.The request msg 208 that sends from client node 201 is identical with request msg 117.
Information relay device 203 is preserved in the memory storage (not shown) and is duplicated target URL206, copy content-data 207, replication strategy knowledge 221 and input information statistics 222.This device comprises that copy uses determining section 204, request/content translator unit 205 and deletes determining section 223 according to the registration that these data and request msg 208 are carried out predetermined process.
Be present in and duplicate among the target URL206 if be included in URL contents in the request msg 208, then copy uses determining section 204 to return client node from the corresponding contents of copy content-data 207.If content does not exist, then copy uses determining section 204 that corresponding URL is added and duplicates target URL206, and the request 209 that will register is delivered to server node 211 as the new object content that duplicates.
Copy uses determining section 204 also to preserve the input information statistics 222 of nearest request issuing time as each URL according to request msg 208.
Request/content translator unit 205 only writes down on reproduced content data 207 from the URL content of the content-data 210 of server node 211 transmissions, and it is registered in duplicating target URL206.
Duplicate target URL206 and be information relay device 203 with the URL content as the data area of duplicating target record.For example, this zone has data structure shown in Figure 16.
Figure 16 shows the data structure instance of duplicating target URL in the present embodiment.
Reproduced content data 207 is data areas of record reproducting content.For example, this zone has data structure shown in Figure 17.
Figure 17 shows the data structure instance of reproduced content data in the present embodiment.
Replication strategy knowledge 221 is meant the data of the deleted condition of copy content in the system content-data 207 of giving instructions in reply.This condition is " nearest request produced preceding 3 days of current time ", " nearest request does not have convention in generation of preceding 3 days of current time and corresponding URL " etc.
Registration deletion determining section 223 is determined delete the URL of registration according to the nearest request issuing time of input information statistics 222 and the registration deletion condition of replication strategy indication 221.If registration deletion determining section 223 determines delete the registration of given copy content, then from duplicate target URL206 and copy content-data 207, delete corresponding data, and will register the data of deleting and deliver to server node 211.
Server node 211 is preserved content-data 214, duplicates target URL216 and is duplicated destination device name 217 in the memory storage (not shown), and content send part 212, upgrade test section 213 with carry out the prior defined procedure relevant with these data duplicate target URL registration/deletion 215.
Duplicate target URL registration/deletion 215 registration packet in duplicating target URL216 and be contained in the URL that asks in 209, and log-on message relay name is as the transmission source of duplicating the request 209 in the destination device name 217.
Receive duplicate the target request from the deletion of the registration of information relay device 203 deletion determining section 223 after, duplicate target URL registration/deletion 215 deletion and be included in URL in the data 224 of self-replication target URL216, and from duplicate destination device name 217 the corresponding data of deletion.
Duplicating target URL216 is from the url list of server node 211 to the content that is used to duplicate of information relay device 203 transmissions.When a plurality of information relay devices 203 receive request msgs 209, data are independent of each information relay device and record.For example these data have the form of unanimity shown in Figure 16.
Content-data 214 is one group of correspondence content-datas by the former event data of server node 211 preservations.
Upgrade the variation that test section 213 is detected in the content-data 214.If in duplicating target URL, detect variation, then upgrade test section 213 and send URL and content-data entity to content transmission section 212.
As detect upgrading the method that content-datas change in the test section 213, below several be conspicuous:
A. the recent renewal time of checking at interval all the elements at the fixed time is to seek the content of renewal after supervision time last time.
B. when record on content-data 214 during update content, be used for the renewal test section 213 of tool notification corresponding information of update content.
If C. OS or hardware have the function of data variation on the detection of stored unit, then when detecting data variation, with corresponding information update notifications test section 213.
Content transmission section 212 is with one group of URL and come the content of self refresh test section 213 to be sent to all information relay devices 203 of registering in duplicating destination device name 217.

Copy uses determining section 204 to receive request msg 208 (step w2) and check whether the URL that this request comprises has registered (step w3) in duplicating target URL206 from client node 201.
If URL registers (step w3), then copy use determining section 204 returns the copy of copy content-data 207 to client node 201 (step w4).Termination subsequently.
If URL unregistered (step w3), then the URL that comprises of request is added into and duplicates target URL206 (step w5).In addition, registration is duplicated target URL and is obtained requests for content and is sent to server node 211 (step w6).
The content transmission section 212 of server node 211 will be asked the URL content return message relay 203 that comprises in 209, and content further is sent to client node 201 (step w7) from information relay device 203.
As shown in figure 19, carrying out the copy target registered after this request relay process handles.
At first, be included in the URLs of request in 209 be transferred into duplicate target URL registration/deletion 215 and add server node 211 duplicate target URL (step x1).In addition, duplicating target URL registration/deletion 215 will ask the identification name of 209 transmission source apparatus to add to duplicate in the destination device name 217 (step x2).
The copy distribution process is below described.
At first, upgrade the formation (step y1) that content-data 214 interior content change or fresh content are detected in test section 213.
Upgrading test section 213 checks whether the content-data that has detected variation is included in and duplicates in the target URL216 (step y2).
If determine content-data for duplicating target, then content transmission section 212 sends content-data 210 (step y3) to the device that is duplicating registration in the destination device name 217.Utilize many throwings technology to finish transmission initiatively to send data to a plurality of information relay devices 203 from server node.Figure 15 shows one of them information relay device 203.
In information relay device 203, whether the URL of the content-data 210 that 205 inspections of request/content translator unit send is included in and duplicates in the target URL206 (step y4).If being included in, duplicates in the target URL206 URL, then by content-data 210 latest copy content-data 207 (step y5) more.
Like this, the copy target is registered in server node 211 by copy target registered processing and utilizing push technology.The copy target is also distributed to information relay device 203 by the copy distribution process according to the URL that registers.
For the target URL quantity of duplicating that prevents registration in the server node 211 excessively increases, information relay device 203 is carried out the registration deletion and is handled.
