Value-Based Caching in Information-Centric Wireless Body Area Networks
Sensors, 2017 We propose a resilient cache replacement approach based on a Value of sensed Information (VoI) policy. To resolve and fetch content when the origin is not available due to isolated in-network nodes (fragmentation) and harsh operational conditions, we ...
