“…In addition, comprehensive studies such as [17] on IoT security have confirmed that many issues stem from the currently-employed network stack protocols of IoT devices and their interoperability issues with the Internet. There are some major flaws with IP: the concept of scope of a layer is not used correctly [18], as it has been diluted by gradual updates. Although some research work (e.g.…”

“…This means that even if some DIFs are compromised, the integrity of the whole network remains intact. This is a critical benefit in IoT networks where a vast number of diverse devices, each with their own potential vulnerabilities, are interconnected [18]. • Enhanced Scalability: The recursive nature of DIFs means that the same security mechanisms can be applied at different scales, from small local networks to large-scale global networks.…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized our lives by connecting devices to the internet, enabling automation and simplifying daily routines. However, as IoT is built upon the foundation of older network architectures and protocols, such as the Internet, its integration has brought forth significant challenges, particularly in achieving both transport layer efficiency and security at the same time. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the current network stacks used in IoT and highlights the issues they face in this regard. We propose a novel architectural approach leveraging the Recursive InterNetwork Architecture (RINA) to address these challenges. We thoroughly evaluate how RINA's unique combination of recursion and networking can effectively reconcile the efficiency-security trade-off inherent in IoT networks; this has the potential to overcome the limitations of existing architectures and resolving the long-standing issue with Performance Enhancing Proxies (PEPs) that cannot operate on encrypted connections. We demonstrate the practical application of RINA through two use cases: a smart home environment, where RINA provides a unified networking framework, reducing the complexities of integrating diverse systems, and a healthcare patient monitoring scenario, where RINA ensures seamless integration of legacy devices while maintaining the advantages of the RINA architecture, including security and efficient data transmission. The paper concludes with a comprehensive discussion on potential future research topics, paving the way for an efficient and secure IoT ecosystem.

“…The DRUID architecture is based on the idea that all protocols can be expressed as varying recursive instances of a single, universal recursive block of code and data, a combined perspective of the metaprotocol (MP) of USC/ISI's Recursive Network Architecture (RNA) [56,58,65] and the distributed IPC facility (DIF) of Boston University's (BU) Recursive InterNet Architecture (RINA) [15,16,44] (Fig. 5).…”

“…This includes its recursive block, called the Distributed IPC Facility (DIF) [16], the IPC mechanism and associated IPC management, as well as the Data Transfer Protocol (DTP) with tightly bound mechanisms, and the loosely-bound Data Transfer Control Protocol (DTCP). DTP/DTCP are modeled after the soft-state Delta-t transmission protocol [24,66].…”

a b s t r a c tThe Dynamic Recursive Unified Internet Design (DRUID) is a future Internet design that unifies overlay networks with conventional layered network architectures. DRUID is based on the fundamental concept of recursion, enabling a simple and direct network architecture that unifies the data, control, management, and security aspects of the current Internet, leading to a more trustworthy network. DRUID's architecture is based on a single recursive block that can adapt to support a variety of communication functions, including parameterized mechanisms for hard/soft state, flow and congestion control, sequence control, fragmentation and reassembly, compression, encryption, and error recovery. This recursion is guided by the structure of a graph of translation tables that help compartmentalize the scope of various functions and identifier spaces, while relating these spaces for resource discovery, resolution, and routing. The graph also organizes persistent state that coordinates behavior between individual data events (e.g., coordinating packets as a connection), among different associations (e.g., between connections), as well as helping optimize the recursive discovery process through caching, and supporting prefetching and distributed pre-coordination. This paper describes the DRUID architecture composed of these three parts (recursive block, translation tables, persistent state), and highlights its goals and benefits, including unifying the data, control, management, and security planes currently considered orthogonal aspects of network architecture.
