Hierarchical, Attribute and Hash-Based Naming and Forwarding Aided Smart Campus of Things

In order to provide universal ability to access information and communication among Internet-connected devices, the Sustainable Internet of Things (IoT) is on a mission to bring all objects or devices under one roof. Future Internet architecture, especially Information-Centric Networking (ICN), can easily handle the connectivity offered and information created by the massive amount of devices to make it as sustainable IoT applications. Named Data Networking (NDN), one of the several future Internet designs that employ ICN as its foundation, shows promise. NDN integration with IoT-based applications gives solutions to numerous problems. However, this fusion makes accessing the IoT content easier, provided that an effective naming scheme is created to execute this operation. In this work, we build an innovative NDN-based naming scheme (NDN-NS) and put it into practise for consumer, producer, and content routers using our own secure forwarding schemes (NDN-NFS). Due to its scalability, heterogeneity, and security needs, IoT-based Smart Campus (IoT-SC) scenarios are taken into consideration for design and evaluation. We give a complete activity list based on NDN-NS that is split into two communication models (PusH Type Communication (PHTC) and PulL Type Communication (PLTC)) that can be applied to any IoT application. In terms of interest satisfaction rate (ISR), delay, and number of transmissions, we compare the NDN-NFS to legacy NDN. The outcomes demonstrate that NDN-NFS outperforms classic NDN in terms of performance and efficiency.
