Abstract
Scalable and hierarchical naming on contents enables the flexibility of named data networking of things towards globally massive data and applications. However, the side effects of frequent packet fragmentation across layers and thus non-trivial traffic overhead are unavoidable due to scalable and unlimited-length names. In this letter, a local name translation (LAT) is proposed to translate long names into short ones to establish succinct local communication, while preserving the advantages of scalable naming for global uses. With over 30% bandwidth reduction and 40% storage saving, the succinctness and effectiveness of the LAT are verified through model analyses and evaluation results.
