Abstract

An approach is provided for providing an application-level cache. A caching application configures at least one memory of a mobile terminal into an application-level cache with a locked region and a floating region. The caching application then causes, at least in part, actions that result in caching, into each of the locked region and the floating region, of data items that are anticipated to be requested via an application of the mobile terminal.
