Multi-stream congestion control in POF-ICN

The host-to-host conmunication mode based on the "IP address" has been difficult to meet the current development requirements of the Internet. Research of the future network has become a hot spot, and Information Center Network (ICN) is considered a promising fixture network architecture. ICN can't avoid the emergence of network congestion because of the routing and forwarding based on information name, the connectionless of the transmission process and the uncertainty of the multi-source. Congestion control is very important to improve the efficiency and stability of the network. As the demand for data content increases rapidly, the congestion control problem of ICN becomes more and more important. In this paper, the congestion control problem in ICN is studied in the protocol-aware forwarding environment, and the congestion control algorithm suitable for the network architecture is proposed. Experiment results prove the validity of the proposed scheme to the network congestion control.
