Title
ICN-Fog: An Information-Centric Fog-to-Fog Architecture for Data Communications.
Abstract
Fog computing is an emerging architecture for bringing processing, storage, and control from the Cloud closer to the Things/Users. Fog has mostly been studied in the vertical continuum between the Things/Users and the Cloud to provide resources traditionally existing in the remote Cloud to the applications. This paper introduces ICN-Fog, a novel horizontal Fog-to-Fog layer enabled by Information-Centric Networking. ICN-Fog enriches applications with horizontal data transfer in the Fog layer, distributed processing among Fog nodes, and built-in mobility support thanks to the smart connectionless name-based Fog-to-Fog data communications. We explain the rationale behind our design and demonstrate the advantages of the proposed Fog architecture through two representative case studies.
