SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MULTICASTING OF PLURAL SOURCES IN INFORMATION-CENTRIC NETWORK

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system for updating routing information to be associated with a multicast group in an information-centric network (ICN).SOLUTION: A first node in an ICN receives an update message for a multicast group from an adjacent node. The multicast group includes a root anchor node and many anchor nodes, and the root anchor node has a name smaller than an anchor node. The update message specifies a prefix that is associated with the multicast group and the root anchor node of the multicast group. A system selects one or more next hop adjacent nodes satisfying a notification condition from an adjacent node of a first node on the basis of topology information to be stored in the first node, and transfers the update message to one or more next hop adjacent nodes.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
