Abstract

Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for providing a scheme for managing Last-Modified information for resource requests are described herein. In some embodiments, a computing device may determine whether to round up or down an update time of a resource respectively based on whether a request from a client device for the resource is received within a window. In some embodiments, a computing device may receive, from a client device, a first validation request for a resource and a second validation request for the resource. In response to determining that the first validation request was received within a window, the computing device may round down an update time of the resource. In response to determining that the second validation request was received outside of the window, the computing device may determine whether to round up the update time of the resource.
