Name: A Naming Mechanism for Delay/Disruption-Tolerant Network (1312.2091v1)

Abstract: This paper presents the design and implementation of the naming mechanism (NAME), a resource discovery and service location approach for Delay/Disruption-Tolerant Network (DTN). First discuss the architecture of NAME mainly including Name Knowledge Base, Name Dissemination, Name Resolution and Name-based Routing. In the design and implementation of NAME, we introduce the simple namespecifiers to describe name, the name-tree for name storage and the efficient predicate-based routing algorithm. Future work is finally discussed for completing NAME and providing APIs for abundant applications.
