This paper comprehensively studies a content-centric mobile network based on a preference learning framework, where each mobile user is equipped with a finite-size cache. We consider a practical scenario where each user requests a content file according to its own preferences, which is motivated by the existence of heterogeneity in file preferences among different users. Under our model, we consider a single-hop-based device-to-device (D2D) content delivery protocol and characterize the average hit ratio for the following two file preference cases: the personalized file preferences and the common file preferences. By assuming that the model parameters such as user activity levels, user file preferences, and file popularity are unknown and thus need to be inferred, we present a collaborative filtering (CF)-based approach to learn these parameters. Then, we reformulate the hit ratio maximization problems into a submodular function maximization and propose two computationally efficient algorithms including a greedy approach to efficiently solve the cache allocation problems. We analyze the computational complexity of each algorithm. Moreover, we analyze the corresponding level of the approximation that our greedy algorithm can achieve compared to the optimal solution. Using a real-world dataset, we demonstrate that the proposed framework employing the personalized file preferences brings substantial gains over its counterpart for various system parameters.
Due to explosive growth of online video content in mobile wireless networks, in-network caching is becoming increasingly important to improve the end-user experience and reduce the Internet access cost for mobile network operators. However, caching i
This letter proposes two novel proactive cooperative caching approaches using deep learning (DL) to predict users content demand in a mobile edge caching network. In the first approach, a (central) content server takes responsibilities to collect inf
Mobile networks are experiencing tremendous increase in data volume and user density. An efficient technique to alleviate this issue is to bring the data closer to the users by exploiting the caches of edge network nodes, such as fixed or mobile acce
Notwithstanding the significant research effort Network Function Virtualization (NFV) architectures received over the last few years little attention has been placed on optimizing proactive caching when considering it as a service chain. Since cachin
