Nodes in the Content-Centric Network (CCN) cache all the passed content by default, without selective caching and optimally placing of the content. In order to solve the problems, a new Cooperative Caching strategy based on User Preference (CCUP) was proposed. Firstly, user's preference for content type and content popularity were considered as user's local preference indexes to realize the selection of cached content. Then, the differentiated caching strategy was executed on the content that needed to be cached, the globally active content was cached at the important central node, and the inactive content was cached according to the matching of the local preference and the distance level between node and user. Finally, the near access of user to local preference content and the quick distribution of global active content were both achieved. The simulation results show that, compared with typical caching strategies, such as LCE (Leave Copy Everywhere)、Prob(0.6) (Probabilistic caching with 0.6)、Betw (cache "less for more"), the proposed CCUP has obvious advantages in average cache hit rate and average request delay.
