Distributed Rendezvous placement for producer mobility support in NDN-IoT

Named Data Networking is a new networking architecture proposed as potential design for the next generation of networks. However, supporting mobility producers in NDN-based IoT systems remains an open challenge researchers to address. To tackle this problem, NDN research group introduced solution called KITE [1]. Since initial design, some issues be resolved remain, including rendezvous placement selection. The location servers can significantly reduce path stretch efficiently. This paper focuses on improving by addressing two specific issues. First, we aim determine optimal number use network. Second, seek identify best locations minimize We propose evaluation metric average hop count based network centrality measures select and rendezvous. evaluate Average under different using random scale-free topology. Our results show that betweenness measure performs better than other measures, we, therefore, suggest it selecting their locations.
