 note = {A key technique to reduce the rapid growing of video-on-demand’s traffic is a cooperative caching strategy aggregating multiple cache storages. Many internet service providers have considered the use of cache servers on their networks as a solution to reduce the traffic. Existing schemes often periodically calculate a sub-optimal allocation of the content caches in the network. However, such approaches require a large computational overhead that cannot be amortized in a presence of frequent changes of the contents’ popularities. This paper proposes a light-weight scheme for a cooperative caching that obtains a sub-optimal distribution of the contents by focusing on their popularities. This was made possible by adding color tags to both cache servers and contents. In addition, we propose a hybrid caching strategy based on Least Frequently Used (LFU) and Least Recently Used (LRU) schemes, which efficiently manages the contents even with a frequent change in the popularity. Evaluation results showed that our light-weight scheme could considerably reduce the traffic, reaching a sub-optimal result. In addition, the performance gain is obtained with a computation overhead of just a few seconds. The evaluation results also showed that the hybrid caching strategy could follow the rapid variation of the popularity. While a single LFU strategy drops the hit ratio by 13.9%, affected by rapid popularity changes, our proposed hybrid strategy could limit the degradation to only 2.3%.},
