Abstract: In the past couple of years, various information-centric networking (ICN) architectures have been proposed to address the existing problems of the current Internet, each of which from a different perspective. Thus, it becomes critical to deploy and interoperate different ICNs on top of the same physical network infrastructure. This demo presents SD-ICN, a software-defined interoperable deployment framework based on Open vSwitch (OVS) for ICN architectures.
