    In this paper we present an Open Connectivity Services architecture, which has been conceived such as to cope with the challenges posed by the Future Internet. By relying on currently working solutions and establishing a trustworthy migration strategy, the proposed architecture provides a flexible framework that supports both legacy and enhanced connectivity mechanisms. It is able to dynamically adapt the operation of the involved mechanisms according to the particular requirements of the services and applications. This open architecture is based on three main modules (information gathering, decision taking and decision enforcement) which mimic the basic functionalities of any connectivity mechanism. By having a common way of representing current and future mechanisms, the OConS operation eases the instantiation, launch and interconnection of mechanisms by the specified orchestration procedures. A challenging flash crowd scenario is presented for validation of the architecture, where enhanced connectivity mechanisms support both cloud networking and network of information use cases.

    The recent advances on networking technologies (both at the access and the core realms) together with the ever-increasing requirements of the end-users and their applications/services call for an open approach, yet with a clear migration strategy, so as to avoid the well-known shortcomings and limitations of clean-slate approaches. These requirements have streamlined the design of a novel (yet not revolutionary) architecture framework based on the identification of functional entities and their interfaces. The most distinguishing feature is its flexibility, allowing its adaptation to already existing protocols/technologies/algorithms as well as to novel solutions. © 2012 ICST Institute for Computer Science, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering.
