Abstract

It becomes apparent that content should be center to the model of information access in the current Internet, which results in research efforts been put together as content-oriented network architectures. In light of our observation that in practice it is not feasible to replace the current Internet architecture with a clean-slate one and that it is the existing transport protocols based on socket addresses that constrain the realization of content-oriented transport, in this article we present Content-Oriented Transport Protocol (COL4), that supports efficient content-oriented transport over the existing Internet infrastructure. We expect our protocol provides a new foundation for further research and development on content-oriented networking.
