Naming and Routing Scheme for Data Content Objects in Information-Centric Network

Abstract

The subject of this article is devoted to the problems of naming and routing scheme for data content object in information-centric networks (ICN). The relevance of the work is determined by the idea of an information-content networks as a future promising technology for the Internet. The article introduces a new naming strategy for ICN – named Semantic Information-Centric Network (SINC). SINC uses three addresses: Geographical, Semantic and Publisher ID address. It was done the classifying data into the four types and classifying subscriber request into four classes where the SICN can cope with these different types and classes. Briefly discussed routing tables structure Geo-ID, Geo-Sematic, ID-Semantic and some algorithms for updating, removing, merging and matching records. The results of two scenarios modeling evaluation by comparing the SICN with different schemes and projects including IP, DONA, PURSUIT, CBCB, KBN according to following metrics: time delay, flooding or traffic, and efficiency reuse factor for data are presented. In terms of flooding and time delay SICN outperforms the other ICN projects. In terms of efficiency SICN shows a good results compared with other schemes.
