Service-oriented, name-based, and software-defined spectrum sensing and dynamic resource allocation for Wi-Fi networks using NovaGenesis

Computing power is increasingly enabling software-based networking. Successful technologies, like Wi-Fi, can now take advantage of the state of the art approaches for software-based architectures, such as software-defined, service-centric, and information-centric networking. In this paper, we employ NovaGenesis - a future Internet architecture - as the foundation for Wi-Fi networks spectrum sensing and dynamic resource allocation as a service. We propose a new paradigm called service-defined architecture (SDA), where NovaGenesis services self-organize towards Wi-Fi networks control and management. We proof this concept experimentally by means of a NovaGenesis named-services chain with named content exchanging.
