“…In these proposals, the node that directly connects to the clients typically reduces the resource size, thus reducing bandwidth consumption, apart from providing a resource version that the client device can consume. Although some of the above mentioned works investigate resource compression techniques [13,33], none considers caching.…”

“…Most research efforts have focused on handling the variations in client bandwidth and display capabilities [5,12,13,15,33]. In these proposals, the node that directly connects to the clients typically reduces the resource size, thus reducing bandwidth consumption, apart from providing a resource version that the client device can consume.…”

“…In the intermediary-based approach [5,12,13,15,20,33], an intermediary node (initially called proxy server, nowadays edge server), that is interposed between the client device and the content provider, analyzes and adapts the requested content on-the-fly, before delivering the result to the client. Intermediary-based adaptation shifts computational load away from the servers of the content providers, simplifies their design, and reduces considerably the user-perceived latency when the adapted content can be served from a node closer to the client than the content server.…”

The overwhelming popularity of Internet and the technology advancements have determined the diffusion of many different Web-enabled devices. In such an heterogeneous client environment, efficient content adaptation and delivery services are becoming a major requirement for the new Internet service infrastructure. In this paper we describe intermediary-based architectures that provide adaptation and delivery of Web content to different user terminals. We present the design of a Squid-based prototype that carries out the adaptation of Web images and combines such a functionality with the caching of multiple versions of the same resource. We also investigate how to provide some form of cooperation among the nodes of the intermediary infrastructure, with the goal to evaluate to what extent the cooperation in discovering, adapting, and delivering Web resources can improve the user-perceived performance.

“…Many research has been focused on exploring the advantage of this approach [6,9,10], where an intermediate proxy is capable of transcoding the requested media object to a proper version according to the client's specification before it sends this media object to the client. We refer such an intermediate proxy as a transcoding proxy in this paper.…”
