What is Future Internet?

• Need to rethink the fundamental assumptions and
  design decisions underlying its current
  architecture
• Two principal ways in which to evolve or change a
  system
• Evolutionary approach (Incremental) a system is
  moved from one state to another with incremental
  patches
• Revolutionary approach (Clean-slate) the system
  is redesigned from scratch to offer improved
  abstractions and/or performance, while providing
  similar functionality based on new core
  principles
• Future Internet?
• Clean Slate design of the Internet
