Title
A Decision-Theoretic Approach for Pre-sending Information on the WWW
Abstract
We present a decision-theoretic model which determines whether to pre-send web documents a user islikely to request. Our model balances the cost of transmitting information with the inconvenience or cost to auser caused by having to wait for required information. It uses a Markov model built from web-access data topredict which documents are likely to be requested next. A comparative evaluation of our pre-sending schemeidentifies circumstances in which our scheme is beneficial for users....
