The aim is to support trillion of things connect to the Internet. In NovaGenesis, we have presented a set of dis- tributed systems where any information processing is seen as service. Services organize themselves based on names and agree- ments to meet semantics rich goals, policies, regulations, etc. Even networking functionalities are considered as services. Every existence could have one or more names: natural language names or self-certifying names. All the communication, processing, and storage are name-oriented. The protocol stacks are built on de- mand in a contract-based way. Hence, we can state that NovaGe- nesis architecture could be an alternative solution for current internet oriented innovations in a scalable manner. The aim of this architecture is the coverage of Internet and sensors oriented smart objects. The paper discusses the proposed model in the context of an Advanced Rural Transportation System.

INTRODUCTION Today's Internet technology was deployed in the 1970s. And the fact is that the scale of the Internet and other related net- working technologies have grown widely since then, giving rise to significant architectural problems [1][6]. Internet access is facing the big issue of mobility support for scalable net- works, which is mainly caused by the dual role of the IP ad- dress. The IP address is not only used as a host Identifier (ID) for the upper layers of the TCP/IP model, but also as a host Locator (LOC) for datagram delivery [2]. Therefore, when a host moves from a network to another, the locator changes to allow appropriate packet transfer. However, the upper layers can experiment inconsistencies, since the host ID has changed as well. Making an analogy with cars, it's like changing the plate of a car every time it moves to a different city. By this we get to know that currently Internet has structured IP- addresses where both the host ID and its LOC information are overloaded. Hence, host mobility support and the scalability of ID/LOC splitting schemes are two crucial concerning issues for future generations of wireless networks [1]. The quest for flexible and efficient ID/LOC mapping systems is still prevail- ing, meaning not resolved [2][3][4]. Another issue is to support global connectivity over trillions of devices. For this, Future Internet (FI) [9][11] should also accommodate large scale interoperability and convergence of wired and wireless networking technologies. One can expect a huge diversity of smart devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) [1][14][15], with different hardware and software capabilities. Thus, to address the interoperability of these sensorial and actuating systems is primordial. Also, sensors and actuators could be connected via wireless or wired connections. There- fore, a convergent access network solution for IoT is also a requirement. This army of devices will also produce a huge amount of private, sensible information [18], for example a car location and its status. Therefore, designs require built-in, scalable, energy-aware support for security and privacy. Another pre- requirement is the formation and management of devices’ trust networks. A trust network is “social alliance” of devices, which maintain reputation-based cooperation. It is supported by the idea of “social devices” [18], where device relates to other peer devices exchanging contextualized information in a timeness manner. The management and control of this huge amount of devices is also a big issue. One cannot expect to manage or control thousands of devices in a smart home manually. The “social devices” need to cooperate each other to achieve objectives, obeying rules and regulations [18]. Also, devices need to be software-defined to facilitate configuration, organization, op- timization, healing, etc. [19]. However, the convergence of autonomic [18][1] and software-defined [19] management and control is almost unexplored by research right now. To address the aforementioned factors in the FI, including the IoT scope, we are developing NovaGenesis (NG) architec- ture [17]. The aim is to accommodate those pre-requirements to support from billions to trillions of devices. Several re- search communities have proposed service oriented architec- ture mechanisms to deal with IoT and FI devices mobility and the separation of IDs/LOCs [2-4]; security, privacy, and trust [18]; and management and control of devices [1][19].
