Experimentation of Geometric Information Routing on Content Locators

Abstract

Information-centric networking has been proposed to achieve efficient and reliable distribution of content. We propose a model to assign content locators to content names. Information routing decision is made based on geometric routing using the assigned locators. We consider a geometric routing scheme known as geodesic geometric routing. We demonstrate on the iLab.t virtual wall the successful operation of the proposed scheme and the gain of using content locators on capacity utilization by means of caching.
