Abstract :
In this paper we present a cooperative video streaming application running on top of an “Information Centric Network” (ICN). The application could be used on mobile devices to offload the cellular radio interface. We demonstrate our application in a test-bed exploiting the CCNx software implementation of an ICN, the VideoLan tool and the Apple HTTP Live Streaming format.
