[ndnSIM] Distributed cache in ndnSIM

[Alex Afanasyev]

Hi Michael,

Did you take a look to the current implementation of content store policies (utils/trie/lru-policy.h, utils/trie/lfu-policy.h, model/cs/custom-policies/freshness-policy.h)?  While some policies are cache replacement (LRU, LFU, ...), they can be used as cache "placement" policies as well.

If the mapping function can be applied individually on each node, then the implementation could be very straightforward.  If explicit collaboration is needed, it also can be implemented, but is more complicated.
