Adaptive Replacement Cache (ARC) is a page replacement algorithm with better performance than LRU (Least Recently Used) developed at the IBM Almaden Research Center. This is accomplished by keeping track of both Frequently Used and Recently Used pages plus a recent eviction history for both. In 2006, IBM was granted a patent for the adaptive replacement cache policy.

Famous quotes containing the words adaptive and/or replacement:
“The shift from the perception of the child as innocent to the perception of the child as competent has greatly increased the demands on contemporary children for maturity, for participating in competitive sports, for early academic achievement, and for protecting themselves against adults who might do them harm. While children might be able to cope with any one of those demands taken singly, taken together they often exceed children’s adaptive capacity.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
“Not even the visionary or mystical experience ever lasts very long. It is for art to capture that experience, to offer it to, in the case of literature, its readers; to be, for a secular, materialist culture, some sort of replacement for what the love of god offers in the world of faith.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
