When you enable "System - Cache" under the plugins, your pages will be simply cached. To delete a cache of a page I used this:

$url = "test";

$options = array(
    'defaultgroup'  => 'page',
    'browsercache'  => false,
    'caching'       => false,
);

$cache = JCache::getInstance('page',$options);

$id = md5(serialize("/$url"));

$cache->remove($id,'page');

You can't clear the browsers cache using server side commands. You can only prevent things from being cached. Im not sure how you would go about doing it for every single thing on a page, but for an article for example, you could install the PHP Direct plugin then add the following code (untested):

<?php
  header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");
  header("Expires: Wed, 01 Jan 2020 05:00:00 GMT");
  header("Content-Type: application/xml; charset=utf-8");
?>

Don't forget to use the php tags.
