Summary:
The purpose of this report is to analyse a Journal which has been focused on one of
the significant application of information system. After the effectively investigating the
mentioned article named “A Survey of Information Centric Networking Research” it has been
determined that the mentioned paper has primarily objectified the functionalities of
Information Centric Networking over the functionalities of Host- Centric Communication. In
order to support the findings the researcher has again concentrated to identify the difference
between the application as well as performance of Host Centric Communication and
Information Centric Networking. Later on a thorough investigation of the paper has helped to
gain knowledge about how the application of ICN has helped the current internet architecture
to gain its desired success. Followed by this above investigation the researcher has also
focused on the areas which needs to be lighten due to its impact on the services of
Information Centric Networking. One of the major objective this study was to conduct and
complete a research on every aspects of the ICN operations which includes the investigation
related to its advantages as well as its limitations. This study has effectively proved that
however, there are several advantages of the approach Information Centric Networking over
Host centric communication, some of the significant limitations are also present in the
application of ICN which restrict the application to meet its desire success. Those limitations
includes the aspects related to the titling structure of the information resources, data security
as well as the data privacy which causes a significant damage to the entire information
architecture. Along with the above aspects one of the important feature of this research paper
