A Fairness Analysis of Content Centric Networks

In recent years the new vision of data-centric networks has emerged as a natural way to satisfy user needs in the Future Internet. It is based on novel architectures oriented towards data sharing and delivering as opposite to classic host-to-host communications. Among several proposals, Content Centric Networking has been conceived as a very promising solution by the Palo Alto Research Center team. It can be gradually deployed over current IP networks and solves different problems, as NAT Traversal, depletion of IP addresses, security, mobility, and multicast communications.
