not exactly. My problem is about behaviour of human. When some person use a
GIS application, do behavour of  person have laws. and when their operation
in GIS application is mapped to spatial computing :interset , contains ,
distance, ...defined by OpenGIS, Do same computing operation on same spatial
object is performed regularly, and then I can cache the result of these
computing operations.
