Information Centric Networks (Icn): Architecture & Current Trends
暫譯: 資訊中心網路 (ICN)：架構與當前趨勢

本書討論了以資訊為中心的網路（Information Centric Networks, ICN），特別是這一新網路範式中的各種架構、問題和挑戰。本書首先介紹了ICN的概念及其起源，並探討了這一有趣創新背後的原因。針對支持ICN實施的不同架構，本書也進行了詳細討論。ICN實施中的挑戰包括快取、命名、路由和安全性，這些挑戰及其最新發展在本書中都有所涵蓋。此外，本書還介紹了當前通訊和計算的趨勢整合，包括軟體定義網路（software defined networking）和機器學習（machine learning）方法。

本書包含三個在ICN研究領域獨特的章節。第一章是針對ICN實施的SDN框架，通過解耦數據和控制平面來實現。第二章則是關於預測網路流量和其他管理活動未來趨勢的機器學習模型。這一章節探討了使用機器學習模型進行趨勢預測的可能性，以幫助網路管理員和服務提供者應對流量模式和用戶行為的突發變化。第三個最重要的章節是ICN中的安全問題。這一章節包括影響ICN安全性的各種事實，並分別討論了命名、快取和路由中涉及的問題，以及這些領域的一些最新研究成果。ICN中的各種攻擊類型也在討論之列。

在命名數據網路（Named Data Networks）和以資訊為中心的網路或內容為中心的網路（Content Centric Networks）領域工作的研究人員將會發現本書作為參考資料非常有用。本書的內容也適合計算機科學和電機工程的本科生和研究生作為輔助學習材料。
