Abstract
To save energy during content delivery in green cities, caching contents on edge nodes that are placed near mobile social users has been advocated recently. However, how to allocate the limited caching resources with secure content delivery becomes a new challenge. Therefore, in this paper, we present a novel theoretical model to deliver secure content with edge nodes in order to save energy for green cities. First, we present a reverse auction game to encourage edge nodes to cooperatively provide caching services with incentives. With the model, mobile users can determine the candidate of edge node to cache content based on the interaction between mobile users and edge nodes. Second, a trust management method is designed to evaluate the reliability of the selected candidate of edge node by considering the direct trust evaluation. Finally, extensive simulations show that the proposal can save energy with a secure content delivery where both the delay to obtain the content and the caching ratio can be improved compared with the conventional methods.
