First, Future Internet principles are supported by revised communication paradigms, which address potential security issues from the beginning,

it can be used to set up communication using any kind of transport abstraction on the data plane fast path,
that is used for the payload communication. The data-centric paradigm is a natural match with the communication of topology information that needs to be distributed typically to multiple parties
and the ubiquitous caching considerably reduces the initial latency for the payload communication as popular operations can be completed locally based on cached data.
Below the control plane t he network is composed of domains, that encapsulate resources such as links,
We have developed our own language called advanced network description language (ANDL) for the communication of network topology information in control plane publications
Each transport protocol implements a specific communication abstraction and every actualized instance of interaction or communication event consuming the resources of the network has associated an transport, topic, a graphlet and a set of roles.
For example, when IP is seen as a transport protocol in our network architecture, the roles for the endpoints are a source and a destination or for data-centric transport:
For example, for data-centric communication, the topic identifies the requested publication. A graphlet defines the network resources used for the payload communication
and it can be anything from the path of an IP packet to private virtual circuits.
Some protocols may require an additional phase for the reservation of a graphlet before the payload communication.
but the policies can be divided into aspects of communication handled modularly by different scopes implemented by different entities.
Because it is not feasible to use traditional cryptographic solutions like RSA on a per-segment basis in the payload communication,
e g. the link between the two publications, is orthogonal to the scoping of the data that determines the communication aspects for each publication. 2. 2 Interdomain Structure Each node has an access to a set of network resources In the current Internet,
which the communication takes place. The scope joins the upgraphs and produces an endtoend path between the service container e g. a data source)
and the client (e g. a subscriber) and returns the information to the client that can then use this information to join a graphlet (e g. a delivery tree) that can then be used for the fast-path payload communication.
but the internetwork can freely evolve based on trust between neighbouring domains. 4 Phases of Communication Each node wishing to communicate first requests the description of end-to-end fastpath resources used for the graphlet from the scope by subscribing to a publication labeled<Topic rid>,<UN,
which minimizes the amount of communication as only relevant information needs to be transfered. Multiple scopes can be used together by performing the rendezvous independently for each of the scopes
which would hide the destination of the communication from the transit domains and thus guarantee some level of network neutrality.

Enhanced communication services will open many possibilities for innovative applications that are envisioned not even today.
Suitable systems with communication and computational capabilities can be integrated into the fabric of the Internet,
In fact, management systems of modern FI networks incorporate autonomic capabilities to effectively deal with the increasing complexity of communication networks, to reduce human intervention,
The most time consuming processes are Execution and Communication. The communication phase is responsible for Soekris 1 and Soekris 4 high delay.
Specifically, both Soekris interact (i e. communicate) with Soekris 2. The duration of Execution phase is high and the same for all devices due to technical and implementation reasons.
The communication between NECMS increases the duration of the communication phase, while the duration of the execution phase is increased, due to technical and implementation reasons.
Similarly to the previous cases (i e. the channel (re-)selection) the communication phase takes again the majority of time.

Thus, any object or network element will have embedded communication capabilities and several objects in a certain environment will be able to create a communication network.
Challenges such as the infrastructure coverage extension or the infrastructure capacity extension, arise. Opportunistic networking seems a promising solution to the problem of coverage extension of the infrastructure

The current Internet has become an ubiquitous commodity to provide communication services to the ultimate consumers:
and business communications as well as general information exchange thanks to emails, the web, Voip, triple play service, etc. the Internet is currently providing a rich environment for social networking and collaboration and for emerging Cloud-based applications such as Amazon's EC2,
the communication model offered by the Internet may break the hope for fully-transparent remote access and outsourcing.
Architectural within a new global communications infrastructure there is a need to determine how a service layer would fit into an overall Future Internet architecture.

FINLAN (Fast Integration of Network Layers) was modeled to be able to deal with semantics in the network communication, cross-layers,
resulting in a communication gap between layers 7, 8. Integration of services and networks is an emerging key feature in the future Internet
proposals and discussions over questions related to a network able of supporting the current and Future Internet communication challenges.
This research also shows one proposal to improve the communication between services and networks with semantics
and proposals to extend the use of ontology in computer networks to support the communication needs in a better way.
In current networks, the semantic communication generally is limited to the Application layer and this layer is restricted to sending meaning to the Network and Transport layers.
This helps the networks to improve the support to the communication needs, as the Application layer can inform,
Some of the communication needs that the lower layers can better support, by the ontology use in this work,
The Net-Ontology layer has semantic communication, in OWL (Web Ontology Language), with its superior layer and the DL-Ontology layer.
The DL-Ontology layer has semantic communication, also using OWL, with the superior and the Net-Ontology layers.
It is responsible to support the Data link communication to guarantee the correct delivery Meeting Services and Networks in the future Internet 341 of data transfer between links.
In this scenario, FINLAN approach contributes to the semantic communication between the DOHAND and the DL-Ontology layer, for the handover in 4g networks.
This work uses OWL as formal language for this communication as the OWL was adopted by a considerable number of initiatives
One example of the FINLAN ontology use in the future Internet research area is the possibility to support the AUTOI Functional Components communication with (and between) the network elements.
So, the interactions between these components and their communication with the network intermediate layers can use OWL, instead of IP, UDP and TCP protocols.
and the implementations to enable the network communication without using the IP, TCP, UDP and SCTP protocols,
the class that represents all that can establish communication. For example: a service, a content, a network element and even a cloud computing;
represents the requirements that an entity has during communication. For instance: delivery guarantee, Qos, security and others. 2. 1 Collaboration to the Autoi Planes One of the Autonomic Internet project expectations is to support the needs of virtual infrastructure management to obtain self management
The FINLAN ontology supports the network communication used by the Autoi vcpi (Virtual Component Programming interface) 13,
By this, the FINLAN ontology layers can comprehend communication needs as the instantiation, remotion and modification of virtual resources.
DOCS (Distributed Orchestration Component) or ANPI (Autonomic Network programming Interface) and one OWL sample code for this communication is showed bellow:<
As the communication between the Autoi modules is done through UDP transactions or TCP connections, FINLAN can collaborate in this scenario,
by the OWL experiments at the intermediate network layers and the cross layers communication. In the researches of service-centric,
simplifying the communication process with the lower layers. Through the FINLAN Net-Ontology layer, requirements such as Qos and Security, can be requested to the network,
it is observed that the evolution of TCP IP layers to increase the networks communication possibilities, is need a growing
The benefit of this integration for the Autoi Orchestration plane is the use of the ontology at the intermediate layers to support the semantic needs to orchestrate the negotiation between the AMSS and the communications with the network elements.
and extends this functionality as it allows the understanding of the needs for establishing communication through the ontological model adopted.
With the use of the FINLAN library this communication can be done replacing the IP and TCP protocols with the FINLAN representation using OWL over raw sockets for the Net-Ontology
for the communication between the Service Enabler plane and the Management/Knowledge plane implemented by the AMS.
and DL-Ontology layers allowing the semantic communication and network behavior control. From the OWL concepts, the Net-Ontology layer is skillful to receive requests for applications,

As the upsurge of information and communication technologies (ICT) has become the nervous system of all modern economies,
Urban Communications Abstraction. One of the most urgent demands for sustainable urban ICT developments is to solve the inefficient use (i e. duplications) of existing or new communication infrastructures.
Due to the broad set of heterogeneous urban scenarios, there will be also a pronounced heterogeneity of the underlying communication layers.
So far, through communications abstraction, urban-scale ICT platforms will allow unified communications regardless the different network standards
and will enable data transfer services agnostic to the underlying connection protocol. Furthermore, a major challenge in future urban spaces will be how to manage the increasing number of heterogeneous and geographically dispersed machines
Together with unified communications and information a key functionality of urban ICT Platforms should be to guarantee interoperability at both the application and service levels.
