longDescription = ''
To address the Internets modern-day requirements with a better
fitting model, PARC has created a new networking architecture
called Content-Centric Networking (CCN), which operates by addressing
and delivering Content Objects directly by Name instead of merely
addressing network end-points. In addition, the CCN security model
explicitly secures individual Content Objects rather than securing
the connection or pipe. Named and secured content resides in
distributed caches automatically populated on demand or selectively
pre-populated. When requested by name, CCN delivers named content to
the user from the nearest cache, thereby traversing fewer network hops,
eliminating redundant requests, and consuming less resources overall.
