Abstract
A caching server that provides faster access times for independently operating network elements. The caching server initiates information transfer and holds the requested information in its memory, instead of caching information transfer in response to user requests. The caching server preloads information from another server into its memory based on a set of predetermined criteria. Such preloading preferably occurs during low usage time, such as nighttime. The information source determines which information is described in the catalog in accordance with one of a second set of predetermined criteria. For example, the catalog may be organized according to size and the information source will organize the catalog by file size. The caching server preloads as many often-used files as will fit in its cache memory
