ENABLING QUALITY OF SERVICE (QOS) IN INFORMATION CENTRIC NETWORKING (ICN)

Abstract:

Systems and methods for enabling quality-of-service (QoS) within information centric networking (ICN) networks include receiving, at a network node of an ICN network, an interest packet including a name field and a quality-of-service (QoS) field, the QoS field including at least one QoS parameter. The network node is configured to extract the at least one QoS parameter and a name from the interest packet and forward the interest packet from the network node based on both the name and the QoS parameter.
