Service-Centric Networking (SCN) is a concept derived from Information-Centric Networks (ICN). In SCN, the service is in the center of the architectural design. Current efforts of SCN focus on design enhancements and the derivation of new components providing new functionality. In this article, we present session support for services in SCN. Our design makes use of existing hierarchical naming schemes to specify sessions using unique session identifiers. Sessions are established through a two-way handshake, which allows both the service consumer and provider to exchange their generated unique session identifiers. We have implemented and evaluated our SCN service session support mechanism, which provides promising results.
