NCP: a near ICN cache placement scheme for IoT-based traffic class
Résumé
Information-Centric Networking is considered as one of the most promising architecture for IoT. The use of content-centric approach may improve the content access & dissemination, reduce the content retrieval latency, and enhance the network performance. The use of in-network caching in ICN enhances the data availability in the network, overcome the issue of single-point failure, and improve IoT devices power efficiency. In this paper, we present a Near-ICN Cache Placement (NCP) scheme for IoT taking traffic class into consideration. NCP is designed to select the optimal replica cache by minimizing: the cost of moving the data from content producer to replica nodes, cost of caching the content in the replica, and the cost of delivery the content to consumers. Hence, we presented a multi-objective optimization problem, with a heuristic caching selection algorithm. We evaluated NCP with various performance metrics against different caching schemes. The obtained results show improvement in the cache utilization, with fast data retrieval, and enhancement in the network cache distribution & diversity
