Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETS) have enabled to provide a variety of applications such as accident notification, content usage, etc. These applications have spatio-temporal data which have an interesting region and a lifetime according to their properties. However, geocasting protocols to deliver data to an interesting region can provide data to all vehicles in the region through a single transmission only at the current time, but cannot provide data to vehicles passing through the region during the lifetime of the data. Thus, we propose a spatio-temporal geocasting protocol called STGP using a regional caching scheme to send data to vehicles in an interesting region during a data lifetime in VANETs. For efficient and reliable regional caching, the proposed protocol uses the beacon-based data sharing, the extra caching elimination, and the distance-based caching exchange. Simulation results verify that the proposed protocol achieves more reliable and efficient data delivery compared with the existing protocol.

In this paper, we propose a smallcell local caching algorithm under user's context in smallcell environment. The proposed system reduces traffic to core network and the network cost, but increases it's performance. The proposed algorithm precache suitable files using smallcell's regional characteristics and target's personality. It can adjusts a storage allocation to make effective usage of our limited cache storage capacity. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed cache algorithm, we define the cache efficiency, the decrement of core network traffic. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve performance by about 200% compared to existing web cache scheme.

As the demand on multicast services increases to support the terminal mobility in the midst of the development of wireless mobile communication technology, many new methods have been studied. However, previous methods occur delay and packet loss during re-joining to multicast service group when moving mobile node. In this paper, we will propose a scheme that decreases packet loss using regional registration method. Proposed scheme modified signaling message of previous regional-registration and added caching. In case move to same GFA, we can prevent packet loss by keeping registration to FA until perfectly registration ends. Also, In case move to other GFA, we can reduce packet loss by using cache. Therefore, we can receive efficient multicast service.
