Tutorial 1: The Information Centric Networking challenge
Ioannis Psaras, Dirk Trossen · International Teletraffic Congress · 2012
In this tutorial, we will start off with a short summary on the evolution of content-based networking through the years, which is necessary in order to understand the foundations of the Information Centric Networking (ICN) pyramid; then we will dive into the details of specific research challenges in ICN. These challenges span from network layer naming and addressing to in-network caching and resource management and further to application layer issues. The open issues in this area far outweigh the solved ones and hence, our discussion and presentation will focus on research directions for future ICN investigations. The tutorial will finish with a hands-on/demo session from the EU PURSUIT project, where initial steps on the actual deployment of ICNs have already been investigated.
