Uma proposta de endereçamento de rede aplicação-à-aplicação em arquiteturas clean-slate

Abstract

The addressing model presented in current networks has been around for 40 years, has become a standard, and follows the OSI Reference Model. In this sense, we have a different type of addressing at each layer. The addressing model is part of some research on new Internet architectures of the future. These models allow the unified use of different addresses used, reducing computer networks’ complexities and improving support for new applications’ communication needs on these networks. This work aims to simplify the addressing process in communication between applications through the use of a virtual network interface for each application socket. With an experimental approach, we show how our work can benefit clean-slate network architectures like ETArch and NDN, and also demonstrate quantitative improvements over the TCP/IP.
