Abstract

Despite the diversity and the high quantity of content exchanged on the Internet architecture, service providers want to offer the most efficient delivery content system in order to maximize customer satisfaction and subsequently increase their financial gain. Video streaming is the most popular way for all kind of multimedia content. In particular, the main objective of adaptive video streaming is to ensure user satisfaction while maximizing the use of resources.

Video streaming with all its characteristics and the constraints associated with the current Internet infrastructure emphasizes that the latter is inadequate to support video streaming, particularly with the continued growth of its various operations. For this reason, Content-Centric Networks (CCN) - the most popular ICN architecture - is an innovative solution proposed to eliminate host-communication-based Internet by adopting a content-centric approach. Although this solution is promising, the huge overhead costs resulting from the CCN forwarding process without forgetting the size of the CCN forwarding table that swells more and more with the network size and the exchanged content quantity requires a deep revision of CCN’s efficiency and adaptability for large-scale networks. In this context, we present a new replication framework for video streaming in Content-Centric Mobile Networks based on SDN Architecture (RF-VS-SD-CCMN) to achieve better content delivery, improve the quality perceived by users (QoE), and enhance the consumption of network resources. The experiments, that were carried out with the ndnSIM simulator, have clearly shown the efficiency of our solution.
