ABSTRACT

A dynamic hybrid scheduling scheme [37] is proposed, that does not combine the push and pull in a static, sequential order. Instead, it combines the push and pull strategies probabilistically depending on the number of items present and their popularity. In practical systems, the number of items in a push and pull set can vary. For a system with more items in the push set (pull set) than the pull set (push set), it is more effective to perform multiple push (pull) operations before one pull (push) operation.
