Edge-first-based cooperative caching strategy in information centric networking by Jiang ZHI, Jun LI, Hai-bo WU, Yong-mao REN

“…In order to optimize the replica placement in information centric networking,an edge-first-based cooperative caching strategy (ECCS) was proposed.According to the strategy,cache decision was made during the interest forwarding stage.The decision result and statistic information would been forwarded to upstream routers step by step.Utilizing the information,upstream nodes could update their cache information table immediately to achieve cooperative caching.The experimental results indicate ECCS can achieve salient performance gain in terms of server load reduction ratio,average hop reduction ratio,average cache hit ratio,compared with current strategies.…”

VNE-AFS:virtual network embedding based on artificial fish swarm by Qiang ZHU, Hui-qiang WANG, Hong-wu LV, Zhen-dong WANG

“…Recently virtual network embedding problem had been proposed as a research challenge in the cloud computing environment.In order to reduce the costs,a virtual network embedding algorithms based on artificial fish swarm(VNE-AFS)was proposed.A binary combinatorial optimization model was built according to the constraints on nodes and links between virtual network and substrate network,and the artificial fish swarm algorithm was used to achieve the approximate optimal mapping.The simulation results indicate that the costs of substrate network and computation time are reduced and the success rate,average revenue of embedding and average usage of links are increased compared with the existing virtual network embedding algorithms.…”
