Review of name resolution and data routing for information centric networking

Information Centric Networking (ICN) a future Internet, presents a new paradigm by shifting the current network to the modern network protocols. Its goal, to improve the traditional network operations by enabling ICN packet routing and forwarding based on names.This shift will bring advantages, but at the same time, it is leading to a big challenge on routing approaches to implement ICN nodes. Routing approaches must use special techniques to publish messages to all the network nodes.Flooding approach is an easy and stateless, however, results in control overhead, depending on the network size.Moreover, designing, implementing, and evaluating routing approaches with higher capacity is really a key challenge in the overall ICN research area, because the state of ICN brings a significant cost; both in packet processing and router storage.Many approaches were proposed in the literatures over these years for the efficient control of forwarding on the network.This paper provides a classification and review of the routing mechanisms that are proposed on six ICN architectures.A summary in tabular form and a comparative study of these six architectures is also given in the paper as well as few open research challenges are highlighted

End-to-end networks vs named data network: A critical evaluation

Named data networking or information centric networking is the newest networking paradigm that gives foremost place to the contents in identification and dissemination.On the other hand, the end to end networking paradigm on which the Internet is currently built on places heavy emphasis on devices that make the architecture. The current Internet suffers from many shortcomings due to the misplaced emphasis. In order to overcome some of these deficiencies, researchers and developers have come up with patches and work around that have made the Internet more complex than it ought to be. Named data networking is a clean slate approach in building a network architecture overcoming all the current deficiencies and make it future safe. Several researchers have carried out comparative studies between named data networking and end to end networking. But these studies concentrate only on the features and capabilities of the networking paradigms. This is the first attempt at quantifying the performance the networking architectures experimentally. The authors in this paper present the results of the comparative study carried out experimentally in a simulated environment based on the final throughput. The results have been presented in a graphical form for easy visualization of results

Analysis of internet traffic in educational network based on users' preferences

The demand for Internet services and network resources in Educational networks are increasing rapidly.Specifically, the revolution of web 2.0 "also referred to as the Read-Write Web" has changed the way of information exchange and distribution. Although web 2.0 has gained attraction in all sectors of the education industry, but it results in high-traffic loads on networks which often leads to the Internet users" dissatisfaction.Therefore, analyzing Internet traffic becomes an urgent need to provide high-quality service, monitoring bandwidth usage.In this study, we focus on analyzing the Internet traffic in Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM) main campus. We performed measurement analysis form the application level characteristics based on users' preferences.A total of three methodological steps are carried out to meet the objective of this study namely data collection, data analysis and data presentation.The finding shows that social networks are the most web applications visited in UUM.These findings lead to facilitate the enhancement of Educational network performance and Internet bandwidth strategies

An interaction between congestion-control based transport protocols and MANET routing protocols

Problem statement: Although many efforts have been done on studying the behaviour of TCP in MANET, but the behaviour of TFRC remain unclear in MANET. The purpose of this research is two folds.First, we studied the behaviour of TFRC and TCP over AODV and DSR as the underlying routing protocols in terms of throughput, delay and jitter.The second objective was to identify whether MANET routing protocols have an impact on transport protocols or not.Approach: Network Simulator 2 (NS-2) was used to conduct all of the experiments, i.e., TFRC over AODV, TFRC over DSR, TCP over AODV and TCP over DSR.We created 30 nodes on a 1000×1000 m location area and each node was assigned CBR traffic, transport protocol and routing protocol.In order to simulate the nodes mobility, we implemented a Random Waypoint mobility model with varying speeds of 5, 10, 15 and 20 m sec−1 (m/sec) with a 10 sec pause time.Results: We observed that TFRC throughput increases almost 55% when using DSR as its routing protocol, but TCP throughput has no significant difference with different underlying protocols.However, in terms of jitter and delay, both routing protocols, i.e., AODV and DSR have the impact of more than 50% on TFRC and TCP. Conclusion/Recommendations: The results obtained also show us that TFRC or TCP should choose AODV as its routing protocol because it has less jitter which is one of the critical performance metrics for multimedia applications

A model for congestion control control of transmission control protocol in mobile wireless ad hoc networks

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a fundamental protocol in the TCP/IP Protocol Suite.TCP was well designed and optimized to work over wired networks where most packet loss occurs due to network congestion.In theory, TCP should not care whether it is running over wired networks, WLANs, or Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs).In practice, it does matter because most TCP deployments have been carefully designed based on the assumption that congestion is the main factor of network instability.However, MANETs have other dominating factors that cause network instability. Forgetting the impact of these factors violates some design principles of TCP congestion control and open questions for future research to address.This study aims to introduce a model that shows the impact of MANET factors on TCP congestion control.To achieve this aim, Design Research Methodology (DRM) proposed by BLESSING was used as a guide to present this model. The proposed model describes the existing situation of TCP congestion control.Furthermore, it points to the factors that are most suitable to be addressed by researchers in order to improve TCP performance.This research proposes a novel model to present the impact of MANET factors on TCP congestion control.The model is expected to serve as a benchmark for any intended improvement and enhancement of TCP congestion control over MANET

Internet protocol MANET vs named data MANET: A critical evaluation

Many researches have been done in the field of mobile networking, specifically in the field of ad-hoc networks.The major aim of these networks is the delivery of data to a given node at the destination, irrespective of its location.Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) employs the traditional TCP/IP structure to provide end-to-end communication between nodes (we named this type of architecture is IP-MANET).However, due to their mobility and the limited resource in wireless networks, each layer in the TCP/IP model requires redefinition or modifications to function efficiently in MANET. Named Data MANET (NDMANET) architecture is a recently emerging research area. The in-network chunk-based caching feature of NDN is beneficial in coping with the mobility and intermittent connectivity challenges in MANETs.In the natural disaster field, MANET is considered a challenging task because of the unpredictable changes in the network topology due to the absence of any centralized control.The goals of this paper have two ways: first, this study provides a performance comparison of IP-MANET to ND-MANET in terms of throughput, delay, and packet loss.While the second contribution is to identify which architecture has an impact on the natural disaster (i.e., Flooding disaster) in rural areas and suggests which one may perform better.For experimental purposes, our analyses IP-MANET and ND-MANET by extensive simulations in the NS 3 simulator under a number of different network scenarios, and show that how number of nodes and variety packets size affect their performance
