Design of Communication Architecture to Support Stream-data over Content Centric Networking

In recent years, Future Internet is highly expected as an evolution of IP networks. Content Centric Networking (CCN) is promising as one of future communication architectures, and now many researches on this field, not only applications but also architectures, are actively conducted. However, many applications developed over CCN are mainly focusing on delivery of individual content by using name of content for routing. Few studies regarding a deliver of stream-data, which is a series of contents generated periodically, have been done so far. In this paper, we design and implement a system to support stream-data delivery over CCN. With achieving two important features of stream-data, i.e. random access and flexibility, we design a CCN architecture including seamless naming/addressing architecture to enable controls of content providers. Especially we target on embedded devices, which have limited hardware resources, to realize stream-data delivery with ease. Also a development of prototype is conducted to verify the feasibility of our proposed architecture.
