L-SCN: Layered SCN architecture with supernodes and Bloom filters
Mikael Gasparyan, Torsten Ingo Braun, Eryk Schiller · 2017
In this paper, we present L-SCN, a new routing architecture for Service-Centric Networking (SCN), which makes use of a two-layer forwarding scheme composed of inter-domain and intra-domain communication. Unlike existing SCN routing architectures relying on a flat organization, our design splits the network into domains. Nodes within a domain possess significant knowledge about existing services and available resources within the domain. Supernodes provide a significant advantage in comparison to other architectures. They assure the inter-domain communication and make use of a pull and push mechanism combined with Bloom filters. It allows us to minimize the protocol overhead and optimize sharing of information about available services and resources in the network.
