Internet applications have evolved from the direct end-to-end data
delivery model represented by applications like telnet to an
information-centric usage model represented by applications ranging
from virtual and augmented reality to data collection from large scale
IoT deployment. Such a dramatic shift in application patterns is
particularly challenging to the existing IP model given the mismatch
between IP’s host-centric approach to networking and the
content-centric approach embraced by applications today. Furthermore,
the recently reported serious security incidents in the Internet
expose serious architectural deficiency in the deployed Internet.
</p>
<p>
The Information-Centric Networking (ICN) paradigm and its realization
through Named Data Networking (NDN) have emerged in recent years with
the promise of providing efficient, resilient and secure communication
services for today’s and future applications. ICN/NDN has evolved from
the basic research phase to the applied research and trial deployment
phase to address real world problems including industrial control
systems, Internet of Things (IoT), scientific applications, as well as
tactical network environments. The core building blocks of ICN/NDN
include application-defined hierarchical naming, built-in security
support, and stateful forwarding which enables network intelligence,
native support for multicast and scalable content dissemination. These
ICN/NDN features enable more efficient and secure communication,
better resilience to challenging network dynamics, while improving
latency and data delivery.
</p>
<p>
The objective of this workshop is to highlight recent research,
development, and evaluation of ICN/NDN in real world applications as
well as stimulate more discussions in this area. The workshop has a
particular interest in real world applications of ICN/NDN in
challenging communication environments, where IP-based solutions are
excessively complex or simply do not work. This workshop will offer a
venue for researchers from both industry and academia to demonstrate
their recent progress in applying ICN/NDN in this problem space as
well as identify potential opportunities and research gaps.
