Applying NetInf for the M2M service platform
Takahiro Kaida, Osamu Mizuno · 2014
We propose a machine-to-machine service platform that employs various types of sensor nodes and can provide many different services. The platform has three requirements: connectivity for many types of sensor node, flexible sensor node configuration, and “Many-to-Many” communication. NetInf, a type of Information Centric Network, realizes flexible sensor node configuration. To meet the other requirements, we propose two methods, a distributed routing method that divides data along two paths, and a cache data location method that caches data that may be requested by subscribers. Simulations have been performed for a network assuming a smart city. The results of the simulations confirm the validity of the proposed methods.
