Abstract
The existing Internet ecosystem is a result of decades of evolution. It
has managed to scale well beyond the original aspirations. Evolution, though,
highlighted a certain degree of inadequacies that is well documented. In this
position paper we present the design considerations for a re-architected
global networking architecture which delivers dissemination and
non-dissemination objects only to consenting recipients, reducing unwanted
traffic, linking information producers with consumers independently of the
hosts involved, and connects the digital with the physical world. We consider
issues ranging from the proposed object identifier/locator split to security
and trust as we transition towards a Network of Information and relate our
work with the emerging paradigm of publish/subscribe architectures. We
introduce the fundamental components of a Network of Information, i.e., name
resolution, routing, storage, and search, and close this paper with a
discussion about future work.
