ICN Baseline Scenarios and Evaluation Methodology
2013
This document aims at establishing a common understanding about the
evaluation of different information-centric networking (ICN)
approaches so that they can be tested and compared against each other
while showcasing their own advantages. Towards this end, we review the
ICN literature and document scenarios which have been considered in
previous performance evaluation studies. We discuss a variety of
aspects that an ICN solution can address. This includes general
aspects, such as, network efficiency, reduced complexity, increased
scalability and reliability, mobility support, multicast and caching
performance, real-time communication efficacy, energy consumption
frugality, and disruption and delay tolerance. We detail ICN- specific
aspects as well, such as information security and trust, persistence,
availability, provenance, and location independence. We then survey
the evaluation tools currently available to researchers in this area
and provide suggestions regarding methodology and metrics. Finally,
this document sheds some light on the impact of ICN on network
security.
