Overview and Topics
Recently, a lot of research efforts have been made from both academia and industry side to promote various new and emerging network paradigms. The reason is that during the past decade, it has been realized that the current internet architecture was originally designed for end-to-end host centric communications, however, the actual focal of communications is the content itself. Hence, we have witnessed new architectures such as an Information Centric Network (ICN) with various extensions like Content-Centric Network (CCN), Named Data Network (NDN), Data-Oriented Network Architecture, and so on. On the other hand, enormous efforts in cellular networks have been made for improving the user experience and because of today, we are able to use LTE-A and other networks. In this context, the upcoming 5G networking architectures, whose ongoing research is focused on the networking mechanisms regarding the massive increase in the number of connected devices, bandwidth requirements, reduced latency, and the deployment of supporting operational mechanisms such as network virtualization, cloud-based deployments, mobile edge computing, and storage and new utilization scenarios. Moreover, these modern technologies are being applied in other networking domains as well, including VANETs, Smart Grid, Smart Cities, Internet of Things, Big Data, etc.
RAFNET aims to bring together researchers working on selected areas of future internet architectures along with 5G implications, applications, such as smart cities, smart communities, smart automotive driving, etc. The authors are expected to share their innovative ideas, latest findings, and results in the following topics:
- Information-Centric Networking (ICN) in Internet of Things
- Networking Layer and Forwarding Strategies in ICN
- Interest/Data Forwarding in Content Centric Networks
- Interest/Data Forwarding in Named Data Networks
- ICN Application Layer operations and Models for Testing/Evaluation
- Future Internet and 5G architectural designs
- Analysis of Content-Centric Networking in current network paradigms
- Analysis of Named Data Networking in current network paradigms
- Congestion Control Protocols in ICN for both Ad-hoc and wired networks
- Business perspective of applying ICN in Real World Environment
- Future Internet in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks
- Future Internet in Big Data
- Transport layer issues in Future Internet architectures
- Multimedia Applications and Feasibility with Future Internet architectures
- Future Internet in Smart Cities
