Selection of Rendezvous Point in Content Centric Networks Using Fuzzy Logic

The Content Centric Networks (CCN) replaces the IP narrow waist of the Internet architecture by a content layer. When a node wants to access a piece of content, it sends an Interest packet to the network. The network then, using the name of the content for routing, forwards the Interest to one or more copies of the content object. In CCN, the content information and location information is saved in a server called Rendezvous Point (RP). The selection of RP is a very important problem. In this paper, we propose and implement a simulation system which is based on fuzzy logic and considers three input parameters for selection of a RP. We show the simulation results for different values of parameters. The output parameter is RP Selection Decision (RPSD). The simulation results show that the proposed system can select the RP.
