Evaluating Information-Centric Networks in Disconnected, Intermittent, and Low-bandwidth environments

This paper studies information dissemination in wireless ad hoc networks, using standard routing protocols, such as OLSR, as well as Information-Centric Networking. We performed simulations using NS-3 and ndnSIM with different node counts and transport protocols. Our simulations show that TCP performs better in lower hop count scenarios, while NDN performs better in higher hop count scenarios.
