Welcome to this second edition of the ICN workshop at ACM SIGCOMM. The first edition of the workshop in 2011 was a really rewarding event and a great success in fulfilling its main objective of bringing researchers from different projects and initiatives together.
ICN research has progressed fast since last year's workshop. There is a growing number of projects and researchers devoted to this topics, and there are several open source implementations available that enable experiments with new ideas as well as ICN applications. Moreover ICN concepts such as accessing named data objects get adopted by more evolutionary work, too. With these developments in mind, we have initiated this second edition of the workshop to give researchers an opportunity to present their results on ICN architecture design, specific algorithms and protocols, as well as on results from implementations and experimentation.
For this year happy, we are happy to report that we saw an increase in both the number of submissions as well as the geographic diversity of authors: the call for papers attracted more than 60 submissions from Australia, Asia, Europe and the United States, covering different topics from ICN architectures to specific topics such as naming, security, transport protocols and feasibility studies. The number and the general quality of the received submissions are a promising indication for the commitment and the level of activity that the networking research community is currently investing into ICN.
With the help of an excellent technical program committee of more than 30 international researchers, we were able to select 16 high-quality papers for the final workshop program that, as we believe, address important current research topics in the fields and are suitable to create interesting and fruitful discussions. We hope that the workshop proceedings will serve as a valuable reference for researchers and developers in the field and that the discussions at the workshop will be fruitful for establishing ICN as a major networking research topic.
ICN as a research topic is now at a stage where the fundamental concepts and mechanisms have been developed and where qualitative and quantitative analysis can be performed - requiring testbeds, analytical methodology as well as more running code and deployments. We hope that his workshop can also serve as platform for discussing these topics, too.

Pervasive persistent identification for information centric networking
Identification is central to information or content centric networking, in order to enable referencing and access to the information objects. In this work we focus on identifiers and the identification system as a target of a design process, because ...
Exploit the known or explore the unknown?: hamlet-like doubts in ICN
Most Information Centric Networking designs propose the usage of widely distributed in-network storage. However, the huge amount of content exchanged in the Internet, and the volatility of content replicas cached across the network pose significant ...
Mobility support in content centric networks
Content-centric networking (CCN) is designed for efficient dissemination of information. Several architectures are proposed for CCN recently, but mobility issues are not considered sufficiently. We classify traffic types of CCN into real-time and non ...
Transport-layer issues in information centric networks
Content to be transported over an Information Centric Networking (ICN) infrastructure can be very variable in size, from few bytes to hundreds of gigabytes. Therefore it needs to be segmented in smaller size data units, typically called chunks, in order ...

Content distribution has become a major function of the Internet. However, the current Internet content distribution infrastructure is largely closed to end-to-end applications, making it challenging for the application community to utilize in-network ...
Coexist: a hybrid approach for content oriented publish/subscribe systems
Content Centric Networking (CCN) is a new paradigm that addresses the gap between the content-centric needs of a user and the current widespread location-centric IP network architecture. In this paper, we propose a hybrid content centric architecture ...
Joint hop-by-hop and receiver-driven interest control protocol for content-centric networks
Content-centric networking (CCN) advocates a new transport model tailored to named-data communication. Three features distinguish CCN transport from the TCP/IP model: unique endpoint at the receiver, pull-based data retrieval in a point to multi-point ...
A multi-level DHT routing framework with aggregation
Information-Centric Networking (ICN) has recently attracted research attention, which decouples content from hosts at the network layer, and retrieves a content object by its name (identifier), instead of its storage location (host IP address) in order ...
CATT: potential based routing with content caching for ICN
Information Centric Networking (ICN) has shown possibilities to solve several problems of the Internet. At the same time, some problems need to be tackled in order to advance this promising architecture. In this paper we address two of the problems, ...
Probabilistic in-network caching for information-centric networks
In-network caching necessitates the transformation of centralised operations of traditional, overlay caching techniques to a decentralised and uncoordinated environment. Given that caching capacity in routers is relatively small in comparison to the ...
Proactive selective neighbor caching for enhancing mobility support in information-centric networks
We present a Selective Neighbor Caching (SNC) approach for enhancing seamless mobility in ICN architectures. The approach is based on proactively caching information requests and the corresponding items to a subset of proxies that are one hop away from ...
On the effects of caching in access aggregation networks
All forecasts of Internet traffic point at a substantial growth over the next few years. From a network operator perspective, efficient in-network caching of data is and will be a key component in trying to cope with and profit from this increasing ...
Caesar: a content router for high speed forwarding
Today, high-end routers forward hundreds of millions of packets per second by means of longest prefix match on forwarding tables with less than a million IP prefixes. Information-Centric Networking, a novel form of networking where content is requested ...

We propose a new Data Center Network (DCN) architecture, based on the principles of Information-Centric Networking (ICN). Our Info-Centric Data Center Network (IC-DCN) addresses many of the pain-points in current DCNs, such as network scalability, host ...
Access control enforcement delegation for information-centric networking architectures
Information is the building block of Information Centric Networks (ICNs). Access control policies limit information dissemination to authorized entities only. Defining access control policies in an ICN is a non-trivial task as an information item may ...
ICN-RE: redundancy elimination for information-centric networking
This paper bridges Information-Centric Networking (ICN), a novel form of networking centered around information or content, and Redundancy Elimination (RE), a popular technique widely used to identify content with similar bytestream. The result is ICN-...
