Abstract
A method implemented in a computer system for routing at least one interest packet in a named data network including a plurality of nodes is provided. The method comprises: mapping, with the computer system, each of a plurality of names of a respective plurality of data objects to one of a plurality of path labels, wherein each path label uniquely identifies a path between a source node and a destination node; and providing, with the computer system, an interest packet having both the name of a requested data object and one of the path labels, wherein the path label provided with the interest packet points to the requested data object at the destination node of the path label provided with the interest packet.
