Abstract

We address an issue relevant to Content-Centric Networks, in which content is discovered by flooding a request over the entire network. In our design, the collection of objects resolvable by a router is represented using Bloom filters. In response to the flooding, we send Bloom filters -- in essence transmitting all the object names represented within a router -- along with the object. In this manner, any subsequent request to an object represented within that Bloom filter will not need to be flooded. We present preliminary observations to validate our claims.
