Trustworthy Internet Nicola Blefari Melazzi
This book collects a selection of the papers staged at the 21st International Tyrrhenian Workshop on Digital Communications, organized by CNIT and committed this year to the theme “Trustworthy Internet”. The workshop provided a lively discussion on the challenges involved in reshaping the Internet into a trusty reality, articulated around the Internet by and for People, the Internet of Contents, the Internet of Services and the Internet of Things, supported by the Network Infrastructure foundation. The papers have been revised after the workshop to take account of feedbacks received by the audience. The book likewise includes: i) an introduction by the Editors, setting the scene and presenting evolution scenarios; ii) five papers written by the session chairmen, reputed scientists, and each committed to a facet of the trusty Internet vision; iii) a concluding paper, reporting the outcomes of a panel held at the conclusion of the workshop, written by the two keynote speakers.
From the Back CoverThe term “trustworthy” has a very precise connotation in the European Community’s FP7 exploration program. For a network to be qualified as trustworthy, it needs to be secure, authenti and resilient to attacks and operational failures. Furthermore, quality of service must be guaranteed, while protecting user data, ensuring privacy and supplying usable and trusted tools to support users in their security management. As such, the Trustworthy Internet not only has to include mechanisms, architectures and networking infrastructures that intrinsically provide basic security guarantees, but it likewise has to ascertain users, service suppliers and application suppliers similar that their requirements in terms of Quality of Experience, manageability and efficacy are to a complete degree met. Providing such combined warrantees in a quickly evolving, complex infrastructure such as the Internet requires solving challenging issues that partly include a broader some fields of theoretical and employed info engineering. These issues span all levels of the protocol stack, ranging from finding new intrinsically secure transmission systems, to radically novel routing models, to new architectures for info dissemination and for interconnecting an unexampled number of gadgets and appliances. This book aims at representing a view of the state of the “Trustworthy Internet” as we enter the second decade of our century. The material included in this book originated from the 21st International Tyrrhenian Workshop on Digital Communications, an event traditionally organized by CNIT, the Italian inter-university consortium for telecommunication research. The workshop comprised either invited contributions from widely known and esteemed researchers with complementary expertise, as well as independent, peer-reviewed contributions stimulated through an open call for papers. This volume includes a chosen subset of the workshop papers. Each contribution has been edited and extended after the workshop, taking into account the discussions carried out for the duration of the event, incorporating when suitable further and added technical material. Furthermore, the writers have strived to supplement the specific technical distinct features they present with background material invented to more comprehensively introduce the reader to the specific topic of trustworthiness tackled.
