Abstract:
The Internet shows limited performances for users’ needs, especially on content sharing and video streaming. Content-Oriented Networks (CONs) are efficient approaches for such uses. They abandon the location-based routing of the Internet (IP routing) for a content identifier-based routing. In CONs, users must know the exact content identifier to request it. To give users an easier use of CONs, we quantitatively compare two keyword-based search features for CON: the existing Independent Search and Merge (ISM) and Keyword-based Breadcrumbs (KBC) we propose. While ISM uses routers to store mapping information between a content and its locations, and between a keyword and its corresponding contents, the proposed KBC simply uses routers to store information about contents went through them, in CONs based on Breadcrumbs (BC). We present in this paper the working schemes of ISM and KBC, and we compare their advantages and inconvenience, and their performances using simulation results.
