A Framework for Semantic In-network Caching and Prefetching in 5G Mobile Networks
Recent popularity of mobile devices increased the demand for mobile network
services and applications that require minimal delay. 5G mobile networks are
expected to provide much lesser delay than the present mobile networks. One of
the conventional ways for decreasing latency is caching content closer to end
users. However, currently deployed methods are not effective enough. In this
paper, we propose a new astute in-network caching framework that is able to
smartly predict subsequent user requests and prefetch necessary contents to
remarkably decrease the end-to-end latency in 5G mobile networks. We employ
semantic inference by edge computing, deduce what the end-user may request in
the sequel and prefetch the content. We validate the proposed technique by
emulations, compare it with the state of the art and present impressive gains
