Title
Icn-Fc: An Information-Centric Networking Based Framework For Efficient Functional Chaining
Abstract
In this paper, we present ICN-FC, which is an Information-Centric Networking (ICN) based framework for efficient functional chaining (FC). The key enabling techniques for ICN-FC includes naming semantics, Interest & Data processing and an efficient FC forwarding strategy. By using the proposed solutions, a functional chaining request, which consists of the name of raw data and an ordered set of functions, can be executed seamlessly, dynamically and flexibly in the network. In addition, the novel FC forwarding strategy can be used to improve the forwarding efficiency for functional chaining requests. The overall feasibility and efficiency of the proposed solutions are validated by using both experimental prototype and network simulation. The results show that the proposed solutions outperform previous works such as named function networking to support functional chaining applications.
