The proposed name system for MOFI considers a host-centric for the current stage as well as an object-centric for the next stage. Firstly, a name space for objects is defined. To consider scalability and distributed architecture, the format of the name space consists of object category, local name, domain name, and parameters. Secondly, registries and servers are introduced to manage mapping between HID and object names with one-to-many relationship. Then, name registration and resolution are described. Thirdly, consideration issues of the proposed name system are described. Finally, the proposed name system for MOFI is compared with existing name systems for the future Internet.
