“…However, the increase of both propagation delay due to retransmission and processing delay to retransmit the different packet for each user makes other problems in a multicast distribution system. Content-Centric Network (CCN) [3] and InformationCentric Network (ICN) [4] have been researched as a new network architecture focused on content distribution [5]. In discussion of these architectures, retransmission of lost packets using In-network cache [6] has been proposed as a method to reduce delay due to retransmission [7].…”

With improvement of network performance, content distribution services such as live streaming have been widely spread. For these services, it is effective to use a multicast distribution system. However, conventional multicast distribution systems are best-effort services using the Internet, which do not guarantee the Quality of Services (QoS). On the other hand, Software Defined Network (SDN) and In-network cache are attracted much attention as new frameworks which are different from the conventional network. In this paper, we propose a multicast distribution system with functions of placement and retransmission, exploiting In-network cache for QoS guarantee and time-shift viewing. We implement a prototype system using OpenFlow, and evaluated the performance on the proposed system through computer emulations.

Idle bandwidth resources are inefficiently distributed among different users. Currently, the utilization of user bandwidth resources mostly relies on traditional IP networks, implementing relevant techniques at the application layer, which creates scalability issues and brings additional system overheads. Information-Centric Networking (ICN), based on the idea of separating identifiers and locators, offers the potential to aggregate idle bandwidth resources from a network layer perspective. This paper proposes a method for utilizing user bandwidth resources in ICN; specifically, we treat the use of user bandwidth resources as a service and assign service IDs (identifiers), and when network congestion (the network nodes are overloaded) occurs, the traffic can be routed to the user side for forwarding through the ID/NA (Network Address) cooperative routing mechanism of ICN, thereby improving the scalability of ICN transmission and the utilization of underlying network resources. To enhance the willingness of users to contribute idle bandwidth resources, we establish a secure and trustworthy bandwidth trading market using blockchain technology. We also design an incentive mechanism based on the Proof-of-Network-Contribution (PoNC) consensus algorithm; users can “mine” by forwarding packets. The experimental results show that utilizing idle bandwidth can significantly improve the scalability of ICN transmission under experimental conditions, bringing a maximum throughput improvement of 19.4% and reducing the packet loss rate. Compared with existing methods, using ICN technology to aggregate idle bandwidth for network transmission will have a more stable and lower latency, and it brings a maximum utilization improvement of 13.7%.
