Device Mobility Management in Content-Centric Networking

Abstract

Due to rapid developments in mobile technologies as well as various embedded multimedia features, user created mobile contents are on the increase, in terms of both quality and quantity, and at the same time are shared in real time. To keep pace with such trends, a new networking technology called content-centric networking has appeared. However, it does not consider the extra requirements to support device movements. Thus, this article proposes a mobility management scheme for CCN to provide faster service access latency and lower routing overhead.
