The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

In this survey, we provide a structured review of caching algorithms designed for ICN, with a particular emphasis on NDN. We first present a taxonomy of caching techniques, followed by a detailed discussion of the various methods.

C2weakest assumption

That the selected papers and methods reviewed are representative of the broader literature and that the summarized advantages and disadvantages accurately reflect real-world performance without needing independent verification.

C3one line summary

A structured review and taxonomy of caching methods in NDN that summarizes their principles, advantages, disadvantages, and evaluation metrics.
