Named Data Networking (NDN) is a type of network architecture that focuses on content rather than the location of individual hosts or devices. In NDN, data is uniquely identified by its name, allowing for easier content retrieval and more efficient data transfer. NDN aims to address some of the limitations of traditional network architectures, such as the Internet Protocol (IP). By focusing on content rather than specific addresses, NDN can more effectively cache and store data closer to end users, reducing latency and improving overall network performance. Researchers in the field of NDN are exploring how this network architecture can be implemented and optimized for various applications, such as content delivery, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and data sharing. They are also investigating how NDN can improve security, scalability, and privacy in network communication.
