A Hierarchical Name System Based on Hybrid P2P for Data-Centric Networks

Data-centric network plays an important part in the next generation network architecture. And name system is one of basic elements in data-centric network. This paper describes an approach which achieves the name system design criterion. In naming, a combination of three entities is used to achieve security, scalability, and flexibility. In name resolution, a three-layer structure is proposed to achieve precise and semantic resolutions.
