Named Data Networking (NDN) Project Newsletter for April/May 2017
The NDN project team compiles and publishes this newsletter periodically
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
* The NDN team will conduct a half-day SIGCOMM tutorial presenting
an introduction to the architectural concepts, recent research
results and remaining topics. For people interested in exploring
more, the team will offer another half-day of activities for
demonstrations of the NDN testbed and a set of NDN applications,
introductions to the open-source codebase and code development,
experimental tools, NDN emulator, mini-NDN, an NDN simulator, and
discussions of future development. For more details, please see
https://named-data.net/tutorials/sigcomm2017/. To register for
the tutorial, please see
http://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2017/registration.html.
TECHNICAL NEWS
* The NDN Testbed has grown to 35 nodes with 96 links.
See the complete list of nodes and their status at
http://named-data.net/ndn-testbed/. You can see bandwidth
on the testbed in real-time at http://ndnmap.arl.wustl.edu/.
NDN PUBLICATIONS, PRESENTATIONS, and TECHNICAL REPORTS
* Hila Ben Abraham and Patrick Crowley. "Controlling strategy
retransmissions in named data networking." in proceedings of 2017
Symp. on Arch. for Networking and Communications Systems (ANCS
2017), May 2017. In this paper we study and decompose the core
mechanisms of a forwarding strategy in NDN. We illustrate how the
correctness of some NDN applications can be affected by the
coupling between the application design and the strategy decision
to retransmit an unsatisfied Interest.

* J. Burke, P. Gusev, Z. Sandoval, J. J. Stein, and Z. Wang. "The
storytelling systems of los atlantis." in ACM SIGCHI Case Studies,
May 2017. Los Atlantis was a multisite live performance created
within a research effort exploring the simultaneous authorship
of story and code.

* Hao Wu, Junxiao Shi, Yaxuan Wang, Yilun Wang, Gong Zhang, Yi Wang,
Bin Liu, and Beichuan Zhang. "On incremental deployment of named
data networking in local area networks" in ACM/IEEE Symposium on
Architectures for Networking and Communication Systems (ANCS),
May 2017. Assuming a local network with both NDN and IP traffic,
we lay out three deployment scenarios: NDN-enabled hosts and all
Ethernet switches, NDN-enabled hosts and all Dual-Stack switches
(i.e., they can process both NDN and IP traffic), and a hybrid
network with both Dual-Stack and Ethernet switches. We examine
the technical issues involved in each scenario and propose
solutions. In particular, in the hybrid scenario, we propose
heuristics to optimize the placement of Dual-Stack switches.

* Haowei Yuan, Patrick Crowley, and Tian Song. "Enhancing Scalable
Name-Based Forwarding" in proceedings of 2017 Symposium on
Architecture for Networking and Communications Systems (ANCS
2017), May 2017. In this paper, our goal is to enhance name-based
forwarding performance with memory- and time-efficient data
structures. We first define the string differentiation problem,
based on the behavior of speculative forwarding in core networks,
and then propose fingerprint-based solutions for both trie-based
and hash table-based data structures. We experimentally demonstrate
that the proposed solutions reduce the lookup latency and memory
requirements. The distributed forwarding scheme presented in this
paper makes name-based forwarding truly scalable.

Lu. "Analysis of Tandem PIT and CS with Non-Zero Download Delay"
in proceedings of INFOCOM, May 2017.
* M. Zhang, V. Lehman, and L. Wang. "Scalable name-based data
synchronization for named data networking" in IEEE INFOCOM, May
2017. In this paper, we propose PSync to efficiently address
different types of data synchronization. Names are used in PSync
messages to carry producer's latest namespace information and
each consumer's subscription information, which allows producers
to maintain a single state for all consumers and enables consumers
to synchronize with any producer that replicates the same data.

* Wentao Shang, Zhehao Wang, Alexander Afanasyev, Jeff Burke, and
Lixia Zhang. "Breaking out of the cloud: Local trust management
and rendezvous in Named Data Networking of Things" in Proceedings
of the 2nd ACM/IEEE International Conference on Internet-of-Things
Design and Implementation (IoTDI), April 2017. This paper uses
the design of an IoT-enabled home entertainment application,
dubbed Flow, to demonstrate how the Named Data Networking (NDN)
architecture enables cloud-independent IoT applications.

"Secure Information Sharing among Autonomous Vehicles" in Proceedings
of the 2nd ACM/IEEE International Conference on Internet-of-Things
Design and Implementation (IoTDI), April 2017. In this paper, we
examine two potential threats, false data dissemination and vehicle
tracking, in an NDN-based autonomous vehicular network.

* NDN TR-44 Revision 1: Klaus Schneider, Beichuan Zhang.
"How to Establish Loop-Free Multipath Routes in Named Data
Networking" shows that we can achieve a higher loop-free path
choice than state-of-the-art loop-free routing protocols by
combining an almost loop-free routing protocol (ALR) with
loop-removal at the forwarding layer. ALR's advantage comes from
exploiting the ability of NDNs data plane to always exclude the
incoming interface from forwarding, which broadens the routing
task beyond the traditional goal of creating a Directed Acyclic
Graph (DAG).

* NDN TR-48 Revision 1: Pedro de-las-Heras-Quiros, Eva M. Castro,
Wentao Shang, Yingdi Yu, Spyridon Mastorakis, Alexander Afanasyev,
Lixia Zhang. "The Design of RoundSync Protocol" In this report,
we first use a simple case study to analyze the behavior of
ChronoSync under simultaneous data publications, and then introduce
RoundSync, a revision to ChronoSync to fix the overloading problem.
RoundSync splits data publications into "rounds" and uses two
separate Interest types for state inconsistency detection and
update retrieval.

* NDN TR-50 Revision 1: Zhiyi Zhang, Yingdi Yu, Alex Afanasyev,
Lixia Zhang. "NDN Certificate Management Protocol (NDNCERT)"
enables automatic certificate management in NDN. In NDN, every
entity should have corresponding identity (namespace) and the
corresponding certificate for this namespace. Moreover, entities
need simple mechanisms to manage sub-identities and their
certificates. NDNCERT provides flexible mechanisms to request a
certificate from a certificate authority (CA) and mechanisms to
issue and manage certificates in the designated namespace.

* NDN TR-53 Revision 1: Wentao Shang, Yingdi Yu, Lijing Wang,
Alexander Afanasyev, and Lixia Zhang. "A Survey of Distributed
Dataset Synchronization in Named Data Networking" surveys sync
protocols and highlights their commonalities and fundamental
differences.
