A method of processing ICN interest messages in a DTN scenario, wherein ICN data mules receive interests for content from end-users and disseminate content to end-users based on said interests and/or during encounters with other ICN data mules, is characterized in that a popularity estimation of content is performed, wherein end-users, when forwarding an interest for a given content to a data mule, append a nonce to said interest, and wherein said data mules, by employing said nonces according to predefined rules, maintain and/or record a counter for the interests related to a given content, wherein said counter functions as popularity indicator for said content. Furthermore, a corresponding device for deployment in a DTN scenario is disclosed. |
