Abstract
Information-Centric Networking (ICN) is one promising architecture paradigm which is a profound shift from address-centric communication model to information-centric one. Although ICN routing has attracted much attention from researchers, there are few researches on improving it inspired by other fields. In this paper, we propose a Routing mechanism for ICN incorporating Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Community division (RISC), by decoupling control plane from data plane and dividing ICN topology into different communities. Firstly, we propose a community division scheme based on maximal tree in order to help retrieve the content conveniently and effectively. Secondly, we place all information about contents and forwarding into the corresponding information center for the centralized management. Thirdly, we design a routing mechanism which consists of intra-community routing based on same community information and inter-community routing based on social relationship among communities. Finally, the experimental results show that the proposed RISC not only speeds up content retrieval but also outperforms existent methods.
