The IoT devices produce a massive amount of content compared to the host-centric (IPbased) network. The IP-based network has no strengthened capabilities to handle the growing traffic of the IoT network. The existing research is focusing on proposing Information Centric Network (ICN) framework with potential replacement of IP-based network. Using the caching technique in ICN based IoT significantly strengthen the resource-constrained IoT devices, by reducing the access time with optimized energy consumption. Thus, this paper proposes a caching scheme for IoT contents, known as Central Control Caching (CCC) Scheme. This scheme positions a central entity between different autonomous systems that manage caching and updates the content, by keeping information in a table regarding different contents present on different autonomous systems. This information is utilized when cached contents are exchanged among different autonomous systems. Furthermore, when contents becomes stale, the same information is used to identify the autonomous systems with a copy of the outdated content. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme has outperformed in terms of reduced energy consumption, response latency, and cache-hit compared to state-of-the-art works.
