The server problem is a generalization of the caching problem. The problem is specified by a complete graph on n nodes and a metrical distance matrix D.

Such metrical equivalence would have conformed to the standard practice of concatenation and retrosynthesis, by which additions are integrated with preexisting fabric.

The random walk traversal of Coppersmith et al. 17 (Theorem 5.5) has a loop ratio of 2(n - 1). Using it, they obtain an algorithm for metrical task systems that is 3(n - 1)-competitive.

This abstraction proves useful when we subsequently analyze algorithms for server systems (an abstraction due to Manasse et al. 5, which includes caching as a special case), and for the metrical task systems of Borodin et al. 6.

Metrical task systems can be viewed as a generalization of server systems. A node in the metrical task system encodes the locations of the M servers of the server problem; an M-server problem on a graph with n nodes is represented by a metrical task system with multiple line equations that cannot be represented in ASCII text nodes.

Etymology
The word metrical also comes from the Greek root metron, meaning 'measure', and it shares this root with common words like meter and metric, so metrical can mean 'relating to measurement' or to the metric system.
