Demonstrating Named Data Networking integration into DataTweet IoT Architecture

Abstract

Content Centric Networking (CCN) is an important aspect of the Future Internet Architecture. CCN investigates the evolution from current host-centric network architecture of IP to data centric networking architecture. This paper aims at demonstrating the integration of Named Data Networking (NDN) mechanism, an instantiation of CCN, in previously developed DataTweet Internet of Things (IoT) architecture. The main accomplishment is in achieving and demonstrating interworking between the NDN and IoT paradigms. We briefly describe the identified challenges, their solutions and a real prototype showcasing the integration of NDN into the DataTweet IoT Architecture. Early results about performance evaluation and future works are outlined.
