“…In the work of Gao et al, a scalable area‐based hierarchical architecture for intradomain communication was proposed, which supported scalable awareness of contents and guaranteed efficient interest matching. In the work of Jmal and Fourati, the popularity caching strategy was considered to improve the efficiency of intradomain routing. However, other authors paid more attention to intradomain routing and ignored interdomain routing.…”

In recent years, Content‐Centric Networking (CCN) has been considered as a novel promising paradigm for the future Internet, shifting from provider‐driven end‐to‐end communication mode to interest‐driven content retrieval communication one, which greatly depends on routing technology. In spite of this, CCN routing always faces two significant issues, ie, scalability and large‐scale deployment, which restrict the increasing development of CCN but can be addressed by introducing the ideas of Software‐Defined Networking (SDN) and community (domain) division. However, the current routing proposals on the integrating with SDN, community division or their combination, still have some limitations to be improved. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a novel and intelligent CCN Routing mechanism based on SDN and Community Division (CRSCD). At first, a community division scheme based on eigenvetor centrality and label propagation is proposed to help content retrieval. Then, for each divided community, we deploy an SDN controller which consists of two tables, ie, content index and community topology to help manage the global network view. Finally, a comprehensive routing mechanism including intracommunity routing based on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and intercommunity routing based on interaction frequency is devised. The proposed CRSCD is implemented over Cogent topology, and the experimental results demonstrate that the introduction of SDN and community division can accelerate content retrieval greatly and has better performance than the previous work.

“…NDN allows on‐path caching in the nodes' (routers') caches. Caching aids to reduce server load, control network congestion, and diminution in the response time 38–42 . Caching strategies, mainly, pay attention to cache a content either near to the user or close to the source.…”

Summary NDN forwarding strategies are mainly developed receiver‐driven, where Interest forwarding and Data (content) delivery are controlled from the consumers' viewpoint. The receiver‐driven strategies are greedy by nature and emphasize optimizing the Interest forwarding, which is far from the performance bottleneck as an Interest is of tiny size in compared with a content's size. Thus, optimizing the content delivery can improve the forwarding performance. Moreover, source‐driven optimization of content delivery can alleviate the greedy nature of its counterpart. In this work, a source‐driven forwarding strategy is proposed where the content sources respond to Interest requests in a distributed manner. The content requests hit all the sources, but the sources respond probabilistically such that the content retrieval overhead and latency are minimized. The strategy consents the nearer sources to set a high probability of reacting with the matching content. On the contrary, the distant sources answer with an Offer to save transmission overhead. Besides, a caching strategy is proposed, an integral part of the source‐driven scheme, that caches diverse contents considering the gap between successive copies and content availability while admitting new contents. Next, we extend the source‐driven probabilistic forwarding strategy to operate in SDN‐based NDN architecture. The SDN‐based solution controls the content delivery phase using the global knowledge of NDN cache states. Simulation study conducted using ndnSIM reveals that the proposed forwarding and caching strategy improves user satisfaction and network performance in terms of different performance metrics such as transmission overhead, latency, and cache hit.

“…Moreover, it is unsafe for those environments where only one controller is performing because if the controller breaks down, the network flow will be stopped completely as there is no available backup facility [30,31]. Therefore, on-path caching is useful to manage these critical problems and it can deliver better performance by caching the transmitted content at intermediate locations for subsequent interests [32]. Moreover, SDN can be integrated with on-path caching to create a more beneficial network architecture in which the controller of SDN will be managed by NDN [33].…”

Compound Popular Content Caching Strategy in Named Data Networking

et al. 2019

The aim of named data networking (NDN) is to develop an efficient data dissemination approach by implementing a cache module within the network. Caching is one of the most prominent modules of NDN that significantly enhances the Internet architecture. NDN-cache can reduce the expected flood of global data traffic by providing cache storage at intermediate nodes for transmitted contents, making data broadcasting in efficient way. It also reduces the content delivery time by caching popular content close to consumers. In this study, a new content caching mechanism named the compound popular content caching strategy (CPCCS) is proposed for efficient content dissemination and its performance is measured in terms of cache hit ratio, content diversity, and stretch. The CPCCS is extensively and comparatively studied with other NDN-based caching strategies, such as max-gain in-network caching (MAGIC), WAVE popularity-based caching strategy, hop-based probabilistic caching (HPC), LeafPopDown, most popular cache (MPC), cache capacity aware caching (CCAC), and ProbCache through simulations. The results shows that the CPCCS performs better in terms of the cache hit ratio, content diversity ratio, and stretch ratio than all other strategies.
