Convergence proposes the enhancement of the Internet with a novel, contentcentric, publishsubscribe service model based on the versatile digital item (VDI): a common container for all kinds of digital content, including digital representations of realworld resources. VDIs will serve the needs of the future Internet, providing a homogeneous method for handling structured information, incorporating security and privacy mechanisms. CONVERGENCE subsumes the following areas of research: definition of the VDI as a new fundamental unit of distribution and transaction; contentcentric networking functionality to complement or replace IPaddressbased routing; security and privacy protection mechanisms; opensource middleware, including a community dictionary service to enable rich semantic searches; applications, tested under reallife conditions.This book shows how CONVERGENCE allows publishing, searching and subscribing to any content. Creators can publish their content by wrapping it and its descriptions into a VDI, setting rights for other users to access this content, monitor its use, and communicate with people using it; they may even update or revoke content previously published. Access to content is more efficient, as search engines exploit VDI metadata for indexing, and the network uses the content name to ensure users always access the copy closest to them. Every node in the network is a content cache; handover is easy; multicast is natural; peertopeer is builtin; time/spacedecoupling is possible. Application developers can exploit CONVERGENCEs middleware and network without having to resort to proprietary/ad hoc solutions for common/supporting functionality. Operators can use the network more efficiently, better controlling information transfer and related revenues flows. Network design, operation and management are simplified by integrating diverse functions and avoiding patches andstopgap solutions.Whether as a text for graduate students working on the future of the Internet, or a resource for practitioners providing ecommerce or multimedia services, or scientists defining new technologies, CONVERGENCE will make a valuable contribution to the future shape of the Internet.
