Guocong Quan's research focuses on caching systems, which are the mechanisms computers and networks use to temporarily store frequently accessed data so it can be retrieved faster. Their work develops mathematical models and algorithms to optimize how content is cached and prefetched at network edges (servers closer to users) in order to reduce delays and operating costs, including analysis of the widely-used LRU (Least Recently Used) caching strategy under various conditions like unreliable connections and shared resources.
