Toward this end, the Jacobson algorithm, which is an Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) on the Round Trip Time (RTT) of previous packets, is a promising scheme. Assigning the lower bound to RTO, determining how an EWMA rapidly adapts to changes, and setting the multiplier of variance RTT have the most impact on the accuracy of this estimator for which several evaluations have been performed to set them in Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) networks. However, the performance of this estimator in CCN has not been explored yet, despite CCN having a significant architectural difference with TCP/IP networks. In this study, two new metrics for assessing the performance of RTO estimators in CCN are defined and the performance of the Jacobson algorithm in CCN is evaluated. This evaluation is performed by varying the minimum RTO, EWMA parameters, and multiplier of variance RTT against different content popularity distribution gains. The obtained results are used to reconsider the Jacobson algorithm for accurately estimating RTO in CCN. Comparing the performance of the reconsidered Jacobson estimator with the existing solutions shows that it can estimate RTO simply and more accurately without any additional information or computation overhead.展开更多

In-network caching has been regarded as a prominent feature of Content-Centric Networking since it is able to reduce the network traffic, alleviate the server bottleneck and decrease the user access latency. However, the CCN default caching scheme results in a high caching redundancy, causing an urgent need for an efficient caching scheme. To address this issue, we propose a novel implicit cooperative caching scheme to efficiently reduce the caching redundancy and improve the cache resources utilization. The simulation results show that our design achieves a higher hit ratio and a shorter cache hit distance in comparison with the other typical caching schemes.展开更多

Forwarding strategy only considered a separated node rather than the whole network performance, and Interest flooding led to the network overhead and redundancy as well. As for routing strategy in CCN, each node was required to run the protocol. It was a waste of routing cost and unfit for large-scale deployment.This paper presents the super node routing strategy in CCN. Some super nodes selected from the peer nodes in CCN were used to receive the routing information from their slave nodes and compute the face-to-path to establish forwarding information base(FIB). Then FIB was sent to slave nodes to control and manage the slave nodes. The theoretical analysis showed that the super node routing strategy possessed robustness and scalability, achieved load balancing,reduced the redundancy and improved the network performance. In three topologies, three experiments were carried out to test the super node routing strategy. Network performance results showed that the proposed strategy had a shorter delay, lower CPU utilization and less redundancy compared with CCN.展开更多
