The popularity of information resources on the Internet has already caused an explosion in bandwidth demand, leading to the need for more judicious design of server topology and information distribution mechanisms. A longer term approach may include deploying information servers/caches as well as statistics collectors for them at strategically selected locations (e.g., Network Access Points (NAP) [8]). Such colocation will offer tighter integration of network functionality and facilitate evaluation and improvement of efficiency of information servers and supporting caches. Statistics collected at cache points could also provide a basis from which to plan future cache locations, and perhaps even hierarchical information systems that can balance efficiencies among the network, the servers, and the users.
