A cache control mechanism in CCN for cyclic communication base IoT services

Abstract

The content-centric network (CCN) is a reasonable solution for the application of the Internet-of-Things (IoT) as it enables the efficient transfer of data in IoT services through simplified sequences and reduced traffic via a networked cache. Generally, low latency IoT services are provided by cyclic communication. In this case, however, the latency of the data stored in the cache may result in serious situations. To solve this problem, this study proposes a new cache control mechanism with timed control. This paper also describes the utility of the proposed mechanism on high-reliability services with hot standby redundant systems in addition to low latency services.
