Hi Carl,

When NFD detects there is a new face (e.g., new application), it notifies its internal module and any other interested applications about the fact.  You can learn more about this here: http://redmine.named-data.net/projects/nfd/wiki/Notification <http://redmine.named-data.net/projects/nfd/wiki/Notification>

Does this mechanism affect your simulations?
