Abstract

Content centric networks (CCNs) have emerged to deliver a large amount of contents in the networks. However, it has become a new challenge to efficiently cache the contents in the CCNs. Therefore, in this paper, we design a contract theory based content caching scheme to improve the performance of CCNs. Firstly, a two-layer heterogeneous network model is introduced to study the interaction between users and content providers. Secondly, based on the contract theory, the optimal caching and pricing strategy can be obtained under two constraints in CCNs. Finally, simulation experiments are carried out to prove that our proposal can efficiently improve the cache performance of CCNs.
