1 Introduction
Generally we use web cache in order to improve the performance of the web base
system. Cache performance depends heavily on a replacement algorithm, which
dynamically select a suitable subset of objects for caching in a finite cache space.
Until now LRU, LRUMIN, SIZE and various web caching replacement algorithms
related to this were researched. An aggravation of web object heterogeneity more
frequently generates a replacement of a web object, but cannot reflect enough all
kinds of characteristics of web object in these traditional replacement techniques.
Especially size heterogeneity of an object has an influence on performance of a web
caching seriously. Therefore, a study on web caching algorithm with size
heterogeneity of an object is required.

Table 1 presents a comparison of various caching methods. As noted in Table 1,
studies on the existing caching method have focused on the improvement of the
performance of caching through an effective replacement of objects.
