Collaborative Storage and Resolution Method between Layers in Hierarchical ICN Name Resolution Systems.

Name resolution system is an important infrastructure in Information Centric Networking (ICN) network architecture of identifier–locator separation mode. In the Local Name Resolution System (LNMRS), a hierarchical name resolution system for latency-sensitive scenarios; higher-level resolution nodes serve more users and suffer more storage pressure, which causes the problem of unbalanced storage load between layers, and requires inter-layer collaborative storage under the constraint of deterministic service latency characteristics. In this paper, we use the constraints required for inter-layer collaborative resolution to construct an index neighbor structure and perform collaborative storage based on this structure. This method relieves storage pressure on high-level resolution nodes. Experimental results show that the increase of total storage load brought by the proposed method is 57.1% of that by MGreedy algorithm, 8.1% of that by Greedy algorithm, and 0.8% of that by the K-Mediod algorithm when relieving the same storage load for high-level resolution nodes. Meanwhile, deterministic service latency feature is still sustained when our proposed method is used for collaborative resolution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
