PROJECT TITLE :

On content-centric wireless delivery networks

ABSTRACT:

The flux of social media and also the convenience of mobile connectivity have created a mobile information phenomenon that's expected to overwhelm mobile cellular networks within the foreseeable future. Despite the appearance of 4G/LTE, the growth rate of wireless data has way exceeded the capacity increase of mobile networks. A essentially new style paradigm is needed to tackle the ever growing wireless information challenge. In this text, we investigate the matter of huge content delivery over wireless networks, and gift a systematic read of content-centric network design and its underlying challenges. Toward this end, we tend to first review some of the recent advancements in information-centric networking, that offer the idea of how media contents will be labeled, distributed, and placed across the networks. We then formulate the content delivery task into a content rate maximization downside over a shared wireless channel, that, in distinction to the standard wisdom that tries to increase the bit rate of a unicast system, maximizes the content delivery capability with a fastened amount of wireless resources. This conceptually simple amendment permits us to use the content diversity and network diversity by leveraging the abundant computation sources (through application-layer encoding, pushing and caching, etc.) at intervals the prevailing wireless networks. A network design that allows wireless network crowdsourcing for content delivery is then described, followed by an exemplary campus wireless network that encompasses the higher than concepts.
