Abstract

Systems and methods are described for pre-fetching remote resources. A computerized method of pre-fetching remote resources includes calculating a probability of a request for a remote resource by a user within a validity period, based on a representation of historical requests for the remote resource by the user, pre-fetching the remote resource if the probability is greater than a threshold, intercepting an actual request for the remote resource by the user, recording the actual request into the representation of the historical requests by the user, and fulfilling the actual request for the remote resource using the pre-fetched remote resource.
