SIDMAP:A Service-oriented Mapping System for Loc/ID split Internet Naming

While locator/identifier split makes Internet routing more scalable, the promise of a mapping system that resolves a service to corresponding location is yet to be realized. Part of the challenge is due to most current approaches only focusing on how to find the location of a host, not the location of a service, which make these systems rely on extra naming system to provide applications the requested service's location and introduce complex load interactions between the locator/identifier mapping system and naming system. Another challenge is due to the vast majority of current Internet usage changed from host-centric applications to data retrieval and service access, traditional Domain Name System (DNS) is unable to support today's Internet needs such as service migration and composition.
