Abstract
A method and computer readable medium are disclosed for predictive caching of web pages for display through a screen of a mobile computing device. A load request is received at a mobile computing device, where the load request includes a current timestamp and an address. The address points to a remote server storing a current copy of the address content. The mobile computing device determines whether there is an existing copy of the address content is pre-cached on the mobile computing device. The mobile computing device determines whether a difference between the current timestamp and a pre-cache timestamp is greater than a heuristic timeliness value. If it is, the mobile computing device pre-caches the current copy of the address content from the remove server at the address on the mobile computing device. The mobile computing device then provides the current copy of the address content for display on its screen.
