A method and system provides collaborative caching of transformed Web
objects in a proxy network. The proxies collaboratively provide a set of
object transformations by partitioning the different types of object
transformations, and caching the transformed Web objects among proxies in
order to reduce duplicate object transformation and caching effort. The
transformations may include language translations, currency conversions,
units of measure conversions, shipping cost calculations and sales taxes
calculations. Other transformations are also possible.
