Dear all - A few meetings ago, we had an interesting discussion on evolving the traditional sockets interface towards one that is name-oriented. A significant part of the research group deemed this idea a candidate solution to the routing scalability problem, since the resulting identifier-locator separation would enable multi-homing and reduce the cost of network renumbering. I would like to point you to a paper that elaborates on the name-oriented sockets interface, considering the comments from the discussion we had:

Although the paper is yet to be completed, it contains all major aspects of the solution proposed. - Christian _______________________________________________ rrg mailing list [email protected] http://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/rrg
