In-Network Storage based Cooperative Content Delivery for Consumer Networking

Increasing demands of mass multimedia services require the reorganization of conventional networking infrastructures. However, the deployment of new infrastructures entails enormous cost and much time. To support high volume multimedia traffic in consumer networking environments, we develop a novel cooperative networking system with in-network storage via wireless access points (APs). By fully utilizing existent AP infrastructures, our system achieves reliable and fast mass content delivery in a sense of cooperative communications.
