Semantic caching has been paid much attention in traditional database systems. However, the methods of semantic cache management proposed in those systems are not suitable for mobile computing environment. Moreover, although many improved semantic caching strategies for mobile computing application have been proposed in recent years, few papers discussed semantic cache coherence control, which is very important in mobile computing environment. In this paper, we propose some new semantic cache model and management algorithms, which can significantly reduce the unnecessary uplink requests and downlink broadcasts compared to previous schemes. Simulation experiments are carried out to evaluate the proposed strategy.}, journal = {Journal of Computer Science}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
