Content Central Network (CCN) appeared to improve network efficiency by transforming IP-based network into content name-based network structures. Each router performs caching mechanism to improve network efficiency in the CCN. And the cache replacement policy applied to the CCN router is an important factor that determines the overall performance of the CCN. Therefore various studies has been done relating to cache replacement policy of the CCN. In this paper, we proposed a cache replacement policy that improves the limitations of the LFU policy. The proposal algorithm applies real-time producer popularity-based variables. And through experiments, we proved that the proposed policy shows a better cache hit ratio than existing policies.

Information centric mobile network can significantly improve the data retrieving efficiency by caching contents at mobile edge. However, the cache pollution attack can affect the data obtaining process severely by requiring unpopular contents deliberately. To tackle the problem, we design an algorithm of mitigating cache pollution attacks in information centric mobile network. Particularly, the content popularity distribution statistic is proposed to detect abnormal behavior. Then a probabilistic caching strategy based on abnormal behavior is applied to dynamically maintain the steady-state distribution for content visiting probability and achieve the purpose of defense. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme can achieve higher request hit ratio and smaller latency for false locality content pollution attack than the CacheShield approach and the baseline approach where no mitigation approach is applied.

Information Centric Networking (ICN) has recently attracted great attention. It names the content decoupling from the location and introduces network caching, making the content to be cached anywhere within the network. The benefits of such design are obvious, however, many challenges still need to be solved. Among them, the local caching policy is widely discussed and it can be further divided into two parts, namely the cache permission policy and the cache replacement policy. The former is used to decide whether an incoming content should be cached while the latter is used to evict a cached content if required. The Internet is a user-oriented network and popular contents always have much more requests than unpopular ones. Caching such popular contents closer to the user's location can improve the network performance, and consequently, the local caching policy is required to identify popular contents. However, considering the line speed requirement of ICN routers, the local caching policy whose complexity is larger than O(1) cannot be applied. In terms of the replacement policy, Least Recently Used (LRU) is selected as the default one for ICN because of its low complexity, although its ability to identify the popular content is poor. Hence, the identification of popular contents should be completed by the cache permission policy. In this paper, a cache permission policy called Cache-Filter, whose complexity is O(1), is proposed, aiming to store popular contents closer to users. Cache-Filter takes the content popularity into account and achieves the goal through the collaboration of on-path nodes. Extensive simulations are conducted to evaluate the performance of Cache-Filter. Leave Copy Down (LCD), Move Copy Down (MCD), Betw, ProbCache, ProbCache⁺, Prob(p) and Probabilistic Caching with Secondary List (PCSL) are also implemented for comparison. The results show that Cache-Filter performs well. For example, in terms of the distance to access to contents, compared with Leave Copy Everywhere (LCE) used by Named Data Networking (NDN) as the permission policy, Cache-Filter saves over 17% number of hops.

Content-Centric Networking (CCN) is a new Internet architecture with routing and caching centered on contents. Through its receiver-driven and connectionless communication model, CCN natively supports the seamless mobility of nodes and scalable content acquisition. In-network caching is one of the core technologies in CCN, and the research of efficient caching scheme becomes increasingly attractive. To address the problem of unbalanced cache load distribution in some existing caching strategies, this paper presents a neighbor cooperation based in-network caching scheme. In this scheme, the node with the highest betweenness centrality in the content delivery path is selected as the central caching node and the area of its ego network is selected as the caching area. When the caching node has no sufficient resource, part of its cached contents will be picked out and transferred to the appropriate neighbor by comprehensively considering the factors, such as available node cache, cache replacement rate and link stability between nodes. Simulation results show that our scheme can effectively enhance the utilization of cache resources and improve cache hit rate and average access cost.

Content Centric Network(CCN) with architecture that is completely different from traditional host-based networks has emerged to address problems such as the explosion of traffic load in the current network. Research on cache replacement policies is very active to improve the performance of CCN with the characteristics that all routers cache on the network. Therefore, this paper proposes a cache replacement policy suitable for situations in which popularity is constantly changing, taking into account the actual network situation. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we experimented in an environment where the popularity of content is constantly changing, and confirmed that we are superior to the existing replacement policy through comparing hit rates and analyzing server load.

Since large objects consume substantial resources, web proxy caching incurs a fundamental trade-off between performance (i.e., hit-ratio and latency) and overhead (i.e., resource usage), in terms of caching and relaying large objects to users. This paper investigates how and to what extent the current dedicated-server based web proxy caching scheme is affected by large file transfers in a high bandwidth campus network environment. We use a series of trace-based performance analyses and profiling of various resource components in our experimental squid proxy cache server. Large file transfers often overwhelm our cache server. This causes a bottleneck in a web network, by saturating the network bandwidth of the cache server. Due to the requests for large objects, response times required for delivery of concurrently requested small objects increase, by a factor as high as a few million, in the worst cases. We argue that this cache bandwidth bottleneck problem is due to the fundamental limitations of the current centralized web proxy caching model that scales poorly when there are a limited amount of dedicated resources. This is a serious threat to the viability of the current web proxy caching model, particularly in a high bandwidth access network, since it leads to sporadic disconnections of the downstream access network from the global web network. We propose a peer-to-peer cooperative web caching scheme to address the cache bandwidth bottleneck problem. We show that it performs the task of caching and delivery of large objects in an efficient and cost-effective manner, without generating significant overheads for participating peers.

This paper focuses on a hash-based, distributed Wet caching network that eliminates inter-cache communication. An agent program on cache servers, a mapping program on the DNS server, and other components comprised in a distributed Web caching network were modified and developed to implement a so-called "consistent" hashing. Also, a dynamic load balancing algorithm is proposed to address the load-balancing problem that is a key performance issue on distributed architectures. This algorithm effectively balances the load among cache servers by distributing the calculated amount of mapping items that have higher popularity than others. Therefore, this developed network can resolve the imbalanced load that is caused by a variable page popularity, a non-uniform distribution of a hash-based mapping, and a variation of cache servers.

Existing single cache structure has shown difference of hit-ratio according to individually replacement strategy However. It needs new improved cache structure for reducing network traffic and providing advanced hit-ratio. Therefore, this Paper design push agent model using dual cache for increasing hit-ratio by reducing server overload and network traffic by repetition request of persistent and identical information. In this model proposes dual cache structure to do achievement replace gradual cache using by two caches storage space for reducing server overload and network traffic. Also, we show new cache replace techniques and algorithms which executes data update and delete based on replace strategy of Log(Size) +LRU, LFU and PLC for effectiveness of data search in cache. And through an experiment, it evaluates Performance of dual cache push agent model.

In this paper, we propose a smallcell local caching algorithm under user's context in smallcell environment. The proposed system reduces traffic to core network and the network cost, but increases it's performance. The proposed algorithm precache suitable files using smallcell's regional characteristics and target's personality. It can adjusts a storage allocation to make effective usage of our limited cache storage capacity. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed cache algorithm, we define the cache efficiency, the decrement of core network traffic. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve performance by about 200% compared to existing web cache scheme.

Mobile Ad-hoc Network(MANET) needs efficient node management because the wireless network has energy constraints. Mobility of MANET would require the topology change frequently compared with a static network. To improve the routing protocol in MANET, energy efficient routing protocol would be required as well as considering the mobility would be needed. Previously proposed a hybrid routing CACH prolong the network lifetime and decrease latency. However the algorithm has a problem when node density is increase. In this paper, we propose a new method that the CACHE(Context-aware Clustering Hierarchy and Energy efficient) algorithm. The proposed analysis could not only help in defining the optimum depth of hierarchy architecture CACH utilize, but also improve the problem about node density.
