Abstract
Caching content in routers is the most significant feature of Named Data Networking (NDN) and therefore the cache performance is increasingly being concerned for NDN deployment. The default cache policy of NDN is Leave Copy Everywhere (LCE) that leaves the copies in each node the data packet passed, and most of the copies will not be requested again, which leads to the waste of cache resources. The Betweenness Strategy caches data in the node with the maximal betweenness value, which causes a high replacement rate. Considering the betweenness of nodes and the popularity of content, as well as the filter effect of cache, we propose Betweenness and Edge Popularity strategy (BEP) which caches the most popular content in the most important nodes. We also conduct comprehensive simulations based on ndnSIM. By evaluating BEP and other cache replication strategies on a virtual topology, it is indicated that BEP can achieve higher performance in terms of the cache hit ratio, server load and average delay.
