“…There are about eight ICN based architectures proposed in the literature. Some of them are suitable for a static network such as (DONA, NetInf, Mobility First, PURSUIT, CONVERGENCE, and COMET) and the others are for mobile networks, i.e., (Content-Centric Networking (CCN) and NDN) [20,34]. The main aim of all these architectures is to efficiently handle access and distribution of content.…”

“…Moreover, based on local requirements, a complete or partial subset of the overall network nodes can cache contents to increase the data retrieval rate while decreasing the overall network overhead [34,59]. Each NDN node keeps and preserves three data structures [18,20,58,59]: Moreover, each NDN consumer node publishes an interest to find appropriate data through producer node in the network [34,58]. In the first step, it explores for a longest name prefix match in its CS.…”

“…Recently, named data networking (NDN) architecture has received much attention which evolves from the content-centric networking [19]. NDN is a data-oriented future Internet architecture (which retrieves data based on named content) offering several advantages over transmission control protocol (TCP)/IP networking including content delivery efficiency and data security [20,21]. Forwarding strategy is the key feature of NDN to realize dynamic, adaptive and intelligent forwarding.…”

Efficient and reliable systems are required to detect and monitor disasters such as wildfires as well as to notify the people in the disaster-affected areas. Internet of Things (IoT) is the key paradigm that can address the multitude problems related to disaster management. In addition, an unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)-enabled IoT platform connected via cellular network can further enhance the robustness of the disaster management system. The UAV-enabled IoT platform is based on three main research areas: (i) ground IoT network; (ii) communication technologies for ground and aerial connectivity; and (iii) data analytics. In this paper, we provide a holistic view of a UAVs-enabled IoT platform which can provide ubiquitous connectivity to both aerial and ground users in challenging environments such as wildfire management. We then highlight key challenges for the design of an efficient and reliable IoT platform. We detail a case study targeting the design of an efficient ground IoT network that can detect and monitor fire and send notifications to people using named data networking (NDN) architecture. The use of NDN architecture in a sensor network for IoT integrates pull-based communication to enable reliable and efficient message dissemination in the network and to notify the users as soon as possible in case of disastrous situations. The results of the case study show the enormous impact on the performance of IoT platform for wildfire management. Lastly, we draw the conclusion and outline future research directions in this field.

“…Consequently, the ICN paradigm was proposed to replace current Internet architecture [5]. Moreover, the Information Centric Networking (ICN) architectures are prominently known with content name in place of IP address and they are categorized into flat, hierarchical and hybrid naming [9] as presented in Table 1.…”

Recent development in mobile technology makes data traffic intensifies, due to the vast devices connectivity. Also, increases the needs for efficient and scalable distribution of data and services over the Internet. Therefore, the Information Centric Networking paradigm was proposed, with different approaches as a clean-slate redesign of current host-centric Internet architecture. It evolved to access data independent from its location, by replacing IP addresses with content named. This paper reviews the most popular Information Centric Networking approaches, review and summarizes some of its features, such as naming, routing, caching and mobility in tabular form. In addition, the modes of operations based on named resolution services and named based routing for the approaches with some network exemplary diagrams were presented. Also, mobility supports for consumer, and mobility challenges from current to feature Internet were discussed for future research.

“…Each content is assigned a global identifier that all the network entities within an ICN can comprehend, which allows any router to cache data packets and, subsequently, serve future requests via its cache, rather than reforwarding the Interest to the origin of content. A classification of CCN and some important related challenges are presented in [3]. CCNs are designed to integrate with other application domains, e.g., edge computing, vehicular networks, Internet of Things (IoT), which can play supportive roles to augment CCNs in their functionality [4][5][6].…”

Content-Centric Networking (CCN) is a novel architecture that is shifting host-centric communication to a content-centric infrastructure. In recent years, in-network caching in CCNs has received significant attention from research community. To improve the cache hit ratio, most of the existing schemes store the content at maximum number of routers along the downloading path of content from source. While this helps in increased cache hits and reduction in delay and server load, the unnecessary caching significantly increases the network cost, bandwidth utilization, and storage consumption. To address the limitations in existing schemes, we propose an optimization based in-network caching policy, named as opt-Cache, which makes more efficient use of available cache resources, in order to reduce overall network utilization with reduced latency. Unlike existing schemes that mostly focus on a single factor to improve the cache performance, we intend to optimize the caching process by simultaneously considering various factors, e.g., content popularity, bandwidth, and latency, under a given set of constraints, e.g., available cache space, content availability, and careful eviction of existing contents in the cache. Our scheme determines optimized set of content to be cached at each node towards the edge based on content popularity and content distance from the content source. The contents that have less frequent requests have their popularity decreased with time. The optimal placement of contents across the CCN routers allows the overall reduction in bandwidth and latency. The proposed scheme is compared with the existing schemes and depicts better performance in terms of bandwidth consumption and latency while using less network resources.
