Information centric networks, Forwarding, Caching, Routing, Content centric networksAbstract
Information centric networks change the focus of existing network architecture from host driven to data driven model. It supports in-network caching and data driven forwarding which helps to reduce content retrieval delay, network congestion and network load. To forward interest packet so that desired data can be retrieved in least latency is key challenge for ICN. The routing strategy can operate efficiently if caching and request forwarding decisions are executed in a collaborative way. We introduce a collaborative approach between caching and forwarding in ICN to minimize latency. The caching mechanism exploits connected dominating set theory to avoid redundancy in caching and to reduce delay. The forwarding mechanism exploits content placement information as well as additional parameters like pending interest table (PIT) size of content router and total count of data packets originated by content router. This will help forwarding plane to send request to router having highest probability of having required content. The protocol uses the Dijkstra’s shortest path routing algorithm and functions co-operatively with caching integrated forwarding strategy. The protocol performance investigation is carried out in ndnSIM-2.0 simulator using performance measures like content retrieval delay, cache store hit ratio and overhead. The performance analysis shows that proposed protocol outperforms the existing approaches for realistic network scenarios (GEANT and US-26) and exhibits enhancement up to 8-37% in mentioned performance metrics.
