Abstract

Information-Centric Networking (ICN) has been recently recognized as a promising future Internet paradigm by providing content-oriented functionality and in-network caching characteristic rather than relying on overlay or end-to-end communication mode. However, the deployment of ICN on the real network is very difficult or even almost impossible at the current stage. In other words, the end-to-end IP network always has the overwhelming development strengths. In spite of this, the end-to-end IP network has no the adequate in-network caching resources to offload the traffic. At the right time, as the essential and significant characteristic of ICN, in-network caching has great potential to be applied into IP network in order to dramatically reduce load pressure of Origin Server (OS). Therefore, we in this paper enable IP network to have the capacity of in-network caching, and on this base, we investigate the comprehensive routing and content delivery. Firstly, the network topology is divided into a number of Autonomous Systems (ASs), and each AS has an Information Management Center (IMC) which has rich functionalities by maintaining Content Index Table (CIT), Physical Topology Index Table (PTIT) and Response Request Table (RRT). Then, CIT is used to conduct both intra-AS routing and explicitly collaborative caching, and PTIT is used to conduct both inter-AS routing and adaptive content delivery including on-path and off-path. In particular, RRT is only sent to OS so that the end-to-end communication connection is switched off. Finally, the experimental results reveal that the proposed scheme can reduce load pressure of OS around 45.7% over Deltacom and 54.8% over GTS. In addition, compared to the previous work, the proposed scheme has better performance.
