A critical perspective towards CCN
Radu Alexandru Badea, Eugen Borcoci, Radu Lupu, Jordi Mongay Batalla · 2014
In the last years, the internet network research field has witnessed a plethora of new architectures and improvement proposals. One of the more remarkable is the Information/Content Centric Networking (ICN/CCN) design. While quite acclaimed at introduction time, several conceptual and implementation related problems were soon observed by some researchers. This paper will broadly describe the basic ideas of CCN and then analyze at least two issues that in our opinion could affect the proposed architecture. The paper will investigate, in the context of CCN, topics like self-similar network traffic, the Least Recently Used (LRU) Caching Algorithm performance evaluation and Cache reuse probability estimation.
