Contents Oriented Network Project

According to the growth of broadband networking in the Internet, the delivery of large-volume contents, such as videos, has become familiar. The New-Gen eration Network, serving as a lifeline, is required to have higher performance and higher reliability in the large-volume contents delivery. In addition, since the energy problem due to the traffic increase becomes more seri ous, the New-Generation Network is also required to save the energy consumption.

Focusing on video traffic that will occupy a large portion of fu ture network traffic, our project aims to establish the technologies enabling the high-performance (wide bandwidth and small delay) contents delivery; the highly sustainable and reliable operations under severe conditions; and the technologies for visualization and reduction of the traffic and energy consumption.

On the New-Generation Network, the dynamic infrastructure utilization gets available with the virtualization technologies. The low energy consumption contents delivery network with high quality and strong fault tolerance will be developed by

1. Promoting the optimization of the contents delivery routing and placements using traffic measurement
and analysis technologies

2. The establishment of new contents centric network concept

3. The study on the contents delivery service architecture and its business model

Through promptly proving the feasibility of delivery services o f large-volume contents such as videos,
we will be able to take a global leading role in the developmen t of New-Generation networks, and contribute
to the creation of a secure, safe, and low-carbon society by ICT.
