Bundlespace: A Framework for Middle Box Architectures
Bundle : An autonomous unit of data for exchange between persistent stateful entities
- Bundles are not packets, they are messages
- When equipped with appropriate meta-data, bundles become agents
Bundlespace : The architectural constructs that facilitates the routing and delivery of bundles across interconnected networks
- Allows constituent internets to exercise autonomy
- Varying rates of evolution
- Localization of mechanism and policy
- Episodic isolation
- Enables generic store-and-forward operations
