Named Data Networking (NDN) Project Newsletter for May-June 2016

The NDN project team compiles and publishes this newsletter monthly
to inform the community about recent activities, technical news,
meetings, publications, presentations, code releases, and upcoming
events. You can find these newsletters posted on the Named Data
Networking Project blog.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

* On May 31-June 1, 2016, NIST hosted a two-day workshop on Named
  Data Networking on their campus in Gaithersburg, MD. Day 1 theme
  focused on the Internet of Things, Day 2 theme covered Big Data
  and Big Media. Please find the agenda and links to the web cast
  below.

TECHNICAL NEWS

* We released new NDN client libraries: 
   - NDN JavaScript library NDN-JS v0.11.0 
     https://github.com/named-data/ndn-js/releases/tag/v0.11.0
   - NDN C++ library NDN-CPP v0.10 
     https://github.com/named-data/ndn-cpp/releases/tag/v0.10
   - NDN Python library PyNDN version v2.3beta1 
     https://github.com/named-data/PyNDN2/releases/tag/v2.3beta1
   - NDN Client Library for Java v0.12
     https://github.com/named-data/jndn/releases/tag/v0.12
  These libraries now include support for setting a Link object and
  selected delegation in the Interest.  In also includes support
  for NDNLPv2.

* NDN-VIZ: An Interactive Visualization Tool for NDN Traffic
  We released an early version of NDN-VIZ, an interactive visualization
  tool for NDN traffic, aiming to help NDN researchers and developers
  to easily analyze their tests. NDN-VIZ uses D3 to build visualization
  based on log files (ndndump & topology). The current version contains
  only two visualization channels, topology and name tree. We plan to 
  add a timeline and allow selection of specific time periods.

* We posted revision 1 of the technical report NDN-0039-1 "PartialSync:
  Efficient Synchronization of a Partial Namespace in NDN." Data
  synchronization plays an important role in NDN similar to transport
  protocols in IP. Some distributed applications, such as news and
  weather services, require a synchronization protocol where each
  consumer can subscribe to a different subset of a producer's data
  streams. In this paper, we propose PartialSync which aims to
  efficiently address this synchronization problem.
