“…IBM has its own cloud-based solution for IoT using the IBM Watson IoT plaftorm [3]. ICN has received more attention in recent years, as it offers interesting features for IoT solutions due to its in-network caching and computing, de-centralization or energy efficiency (e.g., [19][20][21]).…”

Information-Centric Networking (ICN) has been proposed as a promising solution for the Internet of Things (IoT), due to its focus on naming data, rather than endpoints, which can greatly simplify applications. The hierarchical naming of the Named-Data Networking (NDN) architecture can be used to name groups of data values, for example, all temperature sensors in a building. However, the use of a single naming hierarchy for all kinds of different applications is inflexible. Moreover, IoT data are typically retrieved from multiple sources at the same time, allowing applications to aggregate similar information items, something not natively supported by NDN. To this end, in this paper we propose (a) locating IoT data using (unordered) keywords combined with NDN names and (b) processing multiple such items at the edge of the network with arbitrary functions. We describe and evaluate three different strategies for retrieving data and placing the calculations in the edge IoT network, thus combining connectivity, storage and computing.

“…It is our intuition that ICN could conveniently organize distributed caching of IoT content near each producer, so that fewer IoT devices would have to be active, while others can sleep and data would still be available locally, at any time. Recent work [5,20,21,29] has shown potential for ICN in the Internet of Things. In addition, the convergence of ICN on TSCH promises further improvements of RDC [15].…”

Energy e ciency is a major driving factor in the Internet of Things (IoT). In this context, an IoT approach based on Information-Centric Networking (ICN) o ers prospects for low energy consumption. Indeed, ICN can provide local in-network content caching so that relevant IoT content remains available at any time while devices are in deep-sleep mode most of the time. In this paper, we evaluate NDN enhanced with CoCa, a simple side protocol we designed to exploit content names together with smart interplay between cooperative caching and power-save sleep capabilities on IoT devices. We perform extensive, large scale experiments on real hardware with IoT networks comprising of up to 240 nodes, and on an emulator with up to 1000 nodes. We show in practice that, with NDN+CoCa, devices can reduce energy consumption by an order of magnitude while maintaining recent IoT content availability above 90 %. We furthermore provide auto-con guration mechanisms enabling practical ICN deployments on IoT networks of arbitrary size with NDN+CoCa. With such mechanisms, each device can autonomously con gure names and auto-tune parameters to reduce energy consumption as demonstrated in this paper.

“…The immutability condition here is important as it prevents cache inconsistencies. A mapping from time to sequence numbers and a way to map the context of data to unique names are assumed to be defined by the producers and advertised through capability advertisements [17]. To improve caching performance for such data, we propose a new caching policy in Section 4.2.…”

Information centric networking (ICN) is a proposal for a future internetworking architecture that is more efficient and scalable. While several ICN architectures have been evaluated for networks carrying web and video traffic, the benefits and challenges it poses for Internet of Things (IoT) networks are relatively unexplored. In our work, we evaluate the performance implications for typical IoT network scenarios in the ICN paradigm. We study the behavior of innetwork caching, introduce a way to make caching more efficient for periodic sensor data, and evaluate the impact of presence and location of lossy wireless links in IoT networks. In this paper, we present and discuss the results of our evaluations on IoT networks performed through emulations using a specific ICN architecture, namely, content centric networking (CCN). For example, we show that the newly proposed UTS-LRU cache replacement strategy for improved caching performance of time series content streams reduces the number of messages transmitted by up to 16%. Our findings indicate that the performance of IoT networks using ICN are influenced by the content model and the nature of its links, and motivates further studies to understand the performance implications in more varied IoT scenarios.
