Architectures for the Future Networks and the Next Generation Internet

This tutorial on latest advances in future networking architectures is designed for researchers, engineers and managers involved in future networking product strategies. Networking research funding agencies in USA, Europe, Japan, and other countries are encouraging research on revolutionary architectures that may or may not be bound by the restrictions of the current TCP/IP based Internet. We present an overview of a number of such research projects and activities in this direction. The topics covered include: Clean-Slate Research Programs, Internet 3.0, Virtualization, ID-Locator Separation, Content Centric Networking, OpenFlow, and Delay-tolerant networks.
