Tipo tesi DESIGN AND SIMULATIONS

Descrizione The Internet has evolved since its original design in the 60 and 70s. At that time the problem a network had to solve was the connection between two end hosts. The communication model that was originally centered on a host-to-host conversation is currently under debate as it shows its inadequacy in following the radical changes in the network use. Nowadays Internet users are in fact more interested on the content the network can provide them rather than on the location at which the resource is physically stored.
Recently, the research community has recently proposed a new networking paradigm integrating content delivery as a native network feature: Information-Centric Networking (ICN) (see [1] for a good survey on ICN, [2] for a reference design of the content-centric paradigm). In ICN, all communication primitives, as routing, forwarding, or data transfer, are rethought based on named-data rather than host identifiers. In addition, this paradigm shift enables ubiquitous in-network caching, i.e. every node in the network can store packets it forwards to serve future requests for the same data.
The internship will focus on the definition and the evaluation of particular mechanisms to exploit multipath in ICN. The internship will build on our previous and on-going work [3-7]. In particular the intership will consist in
DESIGN/IMPLEMENTATION of:
 congestion control
 request load balancing mechanisms.
EVALUATION/
 A performance evaluation campaign will be carried out by means of analytical modelling, simulation and/or experimental evaluation in order to analyze the designed protocols in realistic scenarios.
The intern will potentially collaborate with other Bell Labs locations and research laboratories, either academic (INRIA, Telecom ParisTech, Lip6) and industrial entities (Orange Labs France Telecom R&D), and will probably contribute to scientific papers. The duration of the internship is 6 months and the work carried on during this period could potentially lead to a Ph.D. thesis.
