Abstract

Due to the rapid development of mobile communication technologies, the design of the next generation mobile social networks based on content centric architecture has been promising. However, in the content centric based mobile social networks, a huge number of interest packets needs to be forwarded. Besides, the selection of forwarding node and relay node are important to deliver the content to the destination. Therefore, in this paper, we at first present the detailed methods to select the agent node and the relay node. Then, the priorities are defined to forward the interest packets and provide the corresponding data packets, respectively. Finally, we propose the scheme to deliver the mobile social content by using the selective agent and relay nodes. The simulation experiments prove that the proposal can reduce the delay to obtain content more efficiently than other conventional methods.
