Efficient transport layer and socket API for ICN
Pages 206 - 207
Abstract
In this demonstration, we showcase a transport layer and socket API [10] that can be used in several ICN architectures such as NDN, CCN and hICN [8]. The current design follows the successful BSD socket approach: a simple API that can be easily inserted in current applications and used to develop novel ones. In the PoC, we compare the performance of some of the transport services provided by both our transport layer and the today's transport layer: reliable communication, data segmentation and reassembly, data integrity. Moreover, we show the benefits of adopting our transport layer in existing application in terms of CPU load reduction and a lower memory consumption.
