Abstract
A computer-implemented system and computer program product for routing at least one interest packet in a named data network including a plurality of nodes. The system comprises a mapping unit configured for mapping each of a plurality of names of a respective plurality of the 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 a node in operative communication with the mapping unit configured for providing 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.
