Demonstrating A Scalable Name Resolution System for Information-Centric Networking

In implementing Information-Centric Networking (ICN), an efficient Name Resolution System (NRS) is required since names assigned directly to the named data objects (NDOs) are location independent. On designing NRS, the most important challenge is scalability on the ever increasing number of NDO, which becomes even more critical when flat names are used in ICN. In this demonstration, we present a scalable NRS with flat names for ICN, where bloom filters are utilized to aggregate flat names. Specifically, we show the feasibility of our NRS with flat names and highlight the benefits of utilizing bloom filters.
