Zusammenfassung
The current internet architecture is inefficient in fulfilling the demands of
newly emerging internet applications. To address this issue, several
over-the-top (OTT) application-level solutions have been employed, making the
overall architecture very complex. Information-centric-networking (ICN)
architecture has emerged as a promising alternative solution. The ICN
architecture decouples the content from the host at the network level and
supports the temporary storage of content in an in-network cache.
Fundamentally, the ICN can be considered a multisource, multicast
content-delivery solution. Because of the benefits of network coding in
multicasting scenarios and proven benefits in distributed storage networks, the
network coding is apt for the ICN architecture. In this study, we propose a
solvable linear network-coding scheme for the ICN architecture. We also propose
a practical implementation of the network-coding scheme for the ICN,
particularly for the content-centric network (CCN) architecture, which is
termed the coded CCN (CCCN). The performance results show that the
network-coding scheme improves the performance of the CCN and significantly
reduces the network traffic and average download delay.
