Abstract:
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for migrating an application container between nodes in a network are disclosed. An interest for an application container may be received by an origin node and, in response, the origin node may transfer a copy of the application container over the network and to a destination node. The origin node can then shut down the application container and transmit any remaining container state and received requests to the destination node. The destination node may then update a routing plane for the network to provide delivery of service requests to the migrated application.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a device in an anchorless network receives an update message from a first neighbor of the device. The update message indicates a movement of a node in the network to a new position in the network. The device updates a forwarding table of the device to reverse a link direction associated with the node, in response to receiving the update message. The device sends the update message to a second neighbor of the device towards a prior position of the node in the network.
Abstract:
Techniques and apparatus for optimizing scheduling of uplink traffic are provided. One technique includes determining, based on evaluation of a pending interest table (PIT) at an apparatus, at least one portion of an uplink traffic flow from a client device that satisfies one or more conditions for periodicity. A resource for the at least one portion of the uplink traffic flow that satisfies the one or more conditions for periodicity. An indication of the resource allocation is transmitted to the client device.

Abstract:
Systems and methods for associating a client computing device with an edge node. The method includes providing, by a cloud server, a resource to the client computing device. Filtering, by the cloud server, one or more edge nodes to identify a subset of edge nodes that meet a predetermined criteria and communicating the subset of edge nodes to the client computing device. The client probes the subset of edge nodes, and based on at least the probing results, the cloud server then selects one of the edge nodes from the subset to provide the resource to the client computing device.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a method of embedding finer grained information such as user identity and application identity in IPv6 addresses used for end-to-end communications within a network. The finer grained information can be used for improved policy enforcement within the network. In one aspect, generating an address for an end-to-end communication within a network, the address including a user identifier and an application identifier for network policy enforcement; assigning the address to an application used in the end-to-end communication; and performing network segmentation and the network policy enforcement within the network using the address.
Abstract:
A networked electronic device produces a data object comprising content and assigns a location-independent application-level name to the data object. The location-independent application-level name is independent of any network location at which the content is available. The networked electronic device maps the location-independent application-level name to an IP address, generates a DNS resource record specifying the mapping of the location-independent application-level name to the IP address, and provides the DNS resource record to a DNS network node.
Abstract:
The present disclosure describes systems and methods for associating a client device with an edge server. The method includes receiving by each of a plurality of cloud servers a signal from a client device requesting a resource provided by the plurality of cloud servers. Each of the cloud servers then calculates a distance between each cloud server and the client device, and an approximate location of the client device may be determined based on the calculated distance and the known location of the cloud servers. Using the approximate location of the client device, at least one of a plurality of edge servers that are located within a predetermined distance of the client device is identified by the cloud server, and the cloud server or client device may choose one of the identified edge servers through which the client device may be associated to communicate with the cloud server.

Abstract:
Techniques for providing Hybrid information-centric networking (hICN) via a proxy application is described. A hICN proxy application provides hICN to legacy applications by diverting network traffic of a plurality of network traffic types to the hICN proxy application and storing network traffic information for the network traffic in a connection table. The hICN proxy application also translates the diverted network traffic to a hICN network traffic protocol and selects a forwarding strategy for the translated network traffic in order to send the hICN traffic over various non-hICN network protocol types. The hICN proxy application also transmits the translated traffic to a server proxy application using the selected forwarding strategy.
