An Algorithm for Content Mobility in a Future Internet Architecture
Christoph Spleiß, Clemens Schuwerk · 2011
Access and consumption of information is the primary use case for the Internet today. People are using more and more mobile devices to access any kind of information, while the information itself is mostly stored on immobile servers. This work focuses on another aspect of mobility, namely content mobility. Together with the idea of locator/identifier separation we present an algorithm that allows single content objects to be automatically relocated and replicated in order to improve content dissemination. We are optimizing the costs for content delivery from the network's point of view and provide simulation results.
