Abstract

Prototyping future Internet technologies is an important but complicated task, mainly caused by incompatibilities to existing systems and high implementation complexity. To reduce these problems, we have developed the , consisting of four frameworks that cover data transport, information-centric networking, naming, and name resolution. These frameworks can be used separately or can be combined to a large testbed, covering many aspects at once. Experience has shown that FIT not only simplifies our own prototyping activities but is also useful for other projects due to its generality.
