Abstract :
Content-Centric Networking (CCN) provides a complete communication framework for data retrieval and dissemination. It leverages innovative naming, security schemes and novel routing strategies, augmented with caching at intermediate nodes. Content requests are forwarded towards the source(s) by direct use of content names (instead of IP addresses), matching the layout of the Wireless Sensor Network. Despite its potential CCN can not be directly applied to wireless environments, specifically resource-constrained sensor nodes. In this paper, a two-tier CCN architecture is proposed to manage the heterogeneity of involved devices (remote server, sink, sensor nodes). CCN is enhanced with some changes to the forwarding strategies to improve data collection.
