Information-Centric Networking Beyond Baseline Scenarios: Research Advances and 
Implementation
Information-Centric Networking (ICN) has received significant attention in 
recent years, mainly driven by the fact that distributing and manipulating 
information has become the major function on the Internet today. Unlike the 
traditional host-centric networking paradigm where information is obtained by 
contacting specified named hosts, ICN aims at providing native network 
primitives for efficient information retrieval by directly naming and operating 
on information objects. Foreseeing the need and benefits of developing the 
Future Internet with ICN concepts as a key ingredient, many leading research 
groups, both industrial and academic, have created a sizable community devoting 
their efforts to Information-Centric Future Internet designs and prototype 
implementations.

To date, the work in this area has centered on ICN for (largely static) content 
storage. Within the wider network research area, there are those who believe 
ICN cannot work for real time communications, dynamic content and other network 
scenarios. Strong supporters, on the contrary, believe that ICN can be what 
comes after the current Internet. Whatever ones stand on the matter, we 
observe that architectural papers in this area outweigh implementation oriented 
and ICN application papers. This special issue aims to address both of these 
issues. To that end, we seek papers that show ICNs usefulness in a wide range 
of applications. We are particularly interested in the kinds of applications 
where ICN solutions are not immediately obvious. Papers that leave the reader 
thinking I had no idea ICNs could be used this way are particularly welcome. 
On the other hand, we welcome contributions that make solid arguments for 
places where ICNs cannot replace the current Internet architecture. Topics of 
interest include, but are not limited to:

  *   Large scale scenarios, deployment, and experimentation
  *   Case studies of security attacks and solutions in ICN
  *   ICN development platforms (testbeds, simulators, open-source code) and 
tools
  *   Evaluation methodology challenges and advances
  *   ICN protocol design challenges in baseline scenarios
  *   ICN practice, including protocol implementation, empirical performance 
evaluation and enhancements
  *   ICN and Cloud computing
With regard to both the content and formatting style of the submissions, 
prospective contributors should follow the IEEE Network guidelines for authors 
that can be found at http://www.comsoc.org/netmag/paper-submission-guidelines.
