“…The application of network coding in CCN has been explored in [4] where the NC3N architecture has been introduced. In this approach, Interests contain information about the content segments available at the client, based on the approach proposed in [5].…”

“…This is undesirable as a node that has a matching content segment will reply to multiple Interests with the same content segment, that will be duplicated for the client. Inspired by [4], CodingCache has been proposed in [6] which uses network coding to replace the content segments in the cache of the network nodes. Due to the increased content segment diversity in the network, the cache hit rate is improved.…”

“…Due to the increased content segment diversity in the network, the cache hit rate is improved. However, this approach suffers from the same drawbacks as the architecture in [4]. In [7], the multicast delivery of network coded content in InformationCentric Networks is optimized by finding the evolution of the content segments that are stored in the network.…”

“…Our proposed solution solves the shortcomings of the approaches presented in [4] and [6]. Specifically, (i) we eliminate the need to include in the Interests the information about the content available at the client, thus, simplifying Interest aggregation; (ii) we allow nodes to keep information about the content segments they have sent on each face, reducing the number of duplicate segments; and (iii) we allow clients to send multiple Interests in parallel, by modifying the way in which the nodes process the Interest messages.…”

Abstract-Content-Centric Networking (CCN) naturally supports multi-path communication, as it allows the simultaneous use of multiple interfaces (e.g. LTE and WiFi). When multiple sources and multiple clients are considered, the optimal set of distribution trees should be determined in order to optimally use all the available interfaces. This is not a trivial task, as it is a computationally intense procedure that should be done centrally. The need for central coordination can be removed by employing network coding, which also offers improved resiliency to errors and large throughput gains. In this paper, we propose NetCodCCN, a protocol for integrating network coding in CCN. In comparison to previous works proposing to enable network coding in CCN, NetCodCCN permit Interest aggregation and Interest pipelining, which reduce the data retrieval times. The experimental evaluation shows that the proposed protocol leads to significant improvements in terms of content retrieval delay compared to the original CCN. Our results demonstrate that the use of network coding adds robustness to losses and permits to exploit more efficiently the available network resources. The performance gains are verified for content retrieval in various network scenarios.

“…Our work also enables further extensions, such as support for content-based network coding within the managed domain [5], or support for having a metadata-driven mechanism to optimize parameters (like content size, or content access latency, etc.). Our framework would enable the network to extract such attributes at the network layer (without costly DPI) as in [3].…”

The traditional abstraction mechanism in Software Defined Networking does not support including non forwarding elements (proxy and cache for example) in a network. Thus, an OpenFlow network cannot support any content centric functionality natively. We propose an extension of the SDN abstractions to allow these functionalities. We describe our demonstration setup which works by extending OpenFlow to support content identification and management.

Information Centric Networking (ICN) is a novel future network architecture that is focusing on content distribution. Its ubiquitous caching schemes can improve network performance. In this paper, we propose a node importance to community based caching scheme with network coding in ICN, which is named as NICNC. For each community, content router makes cache decision depending on its node importance to community to make content cached more reasonable in temporal and spatial distribution. Moreover, by applying network coding into ICN, one coded blocks containing information of multiple chunks can satisfy multiple interests for different chunks sent by different consumers. This can significantly enhance cache diversity and cache hit rate without increasing cache capacity. Experimental results show that our scheme can improve the network performance at many aspects, such as average download time, cache hit rate, and instantaneous hop reduction rate. KEYWORDScaching, information centric networking, network coding, node importance to community INTRODUCTIONIn the recent years, the primary uses of the Internet have been changed to content distribution. Therefore, a new concept of Information Centric Networking (ICN) is proposed. In this concept, content routers forward packets based on content names instead of host addresses. The information-centric approach to future Internet is being widely studied by several research projects, such as 4WARD, 1 PSIRP 2 in Europe and NDN/CCN, 3 and DONA 4 in US. Content Centric Networking (CCN) 5 is the most popular architecture of ICN. In CCN, a consumer requests for content by sending an Interest packet that is only identified by content name. Any node receiving the Interest packet and having the data specified by Interest can respond the consumer with a Data packet that carries the actual content. When CCN nodes forward Interest packet, they set up state information, so that the returning Data packet can take the path created by the Interest back to consumer. Moreover, each CCN node can cache the Data passed by it in the ContentStore according to the cache strategy. Ubiquitous in-network caching is one of the salient ICN features. With caching, requests are satisfied by content routers that are closer to consumers, rather than original content server. The primary aims of in-networking caching are load balancing to reduce the load of original server and Concurrency Computat Pract Exper. 2019;31:e4797. wileyonlinelibrary.com/journal/cpe
