| Abstract | IoT is an emerging communication field which connects physical world to cyber world via monitoring and controlling, thus demanding secure message transport with mobility, interoperability and caching. However, available networking technologies such as ZigBee and IP have not been able to adequately fulfill such requirements, requiring middleware and supportive protocols, increasing complexity in application deployment. Therefore more solutions are being developed through cloud platforms, which handle higher layer complexities. But, local communication is common in many IoT applications where locality could be leveraged for higher performance, given less complex innovation friendly networking solution are available. Finding such architectural supports, Named Data Networking, one realization of Information Centric Networking has proven several benefits over IoT, providing a simple request/response communication model based on named objects. Based on this motivation, this research developed a NDN based smart home lighting solution, one major use case of smart homes. A prototype was developed and performance of NDN solution was benchmarked against a cloud based approach with respect to both qualitative and quantitative aspects. NDN solution facilitates features available in the cloud from its own architecture, with a higher responsiveness, proving its potentiality towards IoT. |
