Proposed Group: Information Centric Networking Community Group [via Community and Business Groups]

The Information Centric Networking Community Group has been proposed by Kyra .:






Information-centric networking (ICN) is an approach to architecting the future Internet around data rather than endpoints, addressing the major issues we've suffered with Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). Focusing on content over specific connections can minimize the barriers to content distribution and eliminate dependency on centralized cloud services & content delivery networks. This promotes decentralization & local-first computing over monopoly and consolidation, simplifies both the network stack & topology, improves speed & reliability with native multicast, and integrates security into all data packet transmission. 

These properties perfectly accommodate ad-hoc networks, censorship-resistance, and the burgeoning Internet of Things (IoT). It moves infrastructure away from a delicate host-centric paradigm towards a data-centric view of accessing information securely, no matter where it may originate from. Named Data Networking (NDN) is the primary architecture and set of protocols, formed as the successor to Content Centric Networking (CCNx), and a new web is already being built upon it!






 You are invited to support the creation of this group.
 Once the group has a total of 5 supporters, it will be launched and people can join to begin work. In order to support the group, you will need a W3C account.




Once launched, the group will no longer be listed as "proposed"; it will be in the list of current groups.




 If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please send us email on site-comments@w3.org




Thank you,
W3C Community Development Team
