The pricing of network bandwidth and caches plays important roles in monetizing system resources of Internet service providers (ISPs), and thus incentivizes them to provide quality of service (QoS) for users, especially for the future Internet architectures such as information-centric networks (ICN). In this project, we have researched on 1) practical contract designs under which ISPs can better monetize and manage caches, and 2) the premium peering between ISP and CP, under which ISP allocates bandwidth based on CP’s payment. The time-based caching contracts and the corresponding pricing schemes for ICN has been studied, and the premium peering mechanisms between multiple competing ISPs and CPs where ISPs set price have been studied for allocating bandwidth to achieve QoS.
