Infrastructure and self-organization in postmodern internet architecture

Abstract

The Postmodern Internetwork Architecture project, a collaboration among researchers at the Universities of Kentucky, Kansas and Maryland, aims to produce a clean-slate design for a thin (inter)network layer. Design goals for this Internet layer include complete separation of routing from forwarding, avoidance of hierarchical or centrally-assigned identifiers in the forwarding plane, and provision of explicit mechanisms to support policies of the various stakeholders (specifically users and service providers). The talk will begin with a high-level overview of the PoMo architecture, followed by a description of our routing/forwarding approach, which is based on loose source routing. The focus will be on design considerations that suggest which functions of the system should be assigned to the infrastructure, and which should/can be self-organized.
