Hacks Proposals

{::options toc_levels="2,3" /}

  • TOC {:toc}

1. Implementing Mnemosyne, An Immutable Logger

[Pitch Slides]({% asset ndn-hackathon2110-proposal1.pdf @path %})

Project Lead:

  • Siqi Liu

Preferred Team Size:

  • 4

Target Participants:

  • People with NDN code development experience

How will your proposal benefit NDN?

  • Mnemosyne provides a logging solution for NDN based distributed applications.

Briefly describe the tasks:

  • Implementing a prototype for Mnemosyne base on the design in the ICN poster.

Any specific tools or languages?

  • NDN-CXX, SVS, LevelDB

Expected Outcomes:

  • The prototype codebase are expected to be ready for demo and evaluation. It should be ready to be tested on Hydra, the NDN distributed Repo.

2. YaNFD UI

[Pitch Slides]({% asset ndn-hackathon2110-proposal2.pdf @path %})

Project Lead:

  • Xinyu Ma

Preferred Team Size:

  • 2

Target Participants:

  • People new to NDN development

How will your proposal benefit NDN?

  • A UI can make YaNFD easier to use, especially to new developers who are using Windows or not familiar with command-line tools. Hopefully, a user-friendly UI can attract more people to try out NDN.

Briefly describe the tasks:

  • Write a command-line UI for YaNFD that can manage faces and routes.

Any specific tools or languages?

  • Go

Expected Outcomes:

  • A new executable yanfdui which runs as YaNFD with the newly developed UI, where users can view/add/delete faces and routes through UI directly.

3. Passive Name Visualizer

[Pitch Slides]({% asset ndn-hackathon2110-proposal3.pdf @path %})

Project Lead:

  • Junxiao Shi

Preferred Team Size:

  • 2

Target Participants:

  • People new to NDN development

How will your proposal benefit NDN?

  • insights into network behavior

Briefly describe the tasks: "Build upon 10th NDN hackathon project:

  • upgrade to Chart.js version 3
  • server-side name filtering and aggregation
  • time range selection (from pcap file)"

Any specific tools or language

  • Go, NDNgo, JavaScript, RE:DOM, Chart.js

Expected outcomes

  • demo of the improved system

4. NDN-FCH Feedback Loop

[Pitch Slides]({% asset ndn-hackathon2110-proposal4.pdf @path %})

Project Lead:

  • Junxiao Shi

Preferred Team Size:

  • 2

Target Participants:

  • People new to NDN development

How will your proposal benefit NDN?

  • better connectivity from end hosts

Briefly describe the tasks: Build upon 11th NDN hackathon project:

  • Design a protocol that allows end hosts to submit reachability & RTT feedback to the beacon server.
  • Develop the beacon server that saves feedback to database.
  • Develop client app that submits the feedback.

Note: influencing NDN-FCH response with feedback data would be future work.

Any specific tools or language

  • beacon server: Go, MySQL; client app: Go or TypeScript or C++

Expected outcomes

  • Present protocol design; demo feedback generation and collection; present ideas of how to improve NDN-FCH response with feedback

5. Bug Smash – Low Hanging Fruits

[Pitch Slides]({% asset ndn-hackathon2110-proposal5.pdf @path %})

Project Lead:

  • Junxiao Shi

Preferred Team Size:

  • 4

Target Participants:

  • People with NDN code development experience

How will your proposal benefit NDN?

  • improve platform software stability

Briefly describe the tasks: Fix the following bugs in platform software:

  • ndn-cxx misinterprets large dates in ValidityPeriod (#5176).
  • NFD faces/destroy should not destroy reserved faces (#4115).
  • NFD crashes upon receiving TCP RST (#5158).
  • PSync relies on Name URI syntax that is non-portable (#4838).
  • NLSR crashes if security is disabled (Slack#nlsr 2021-03-30).
  • NLSR hyperbolic routes have smaller cost than local apps (#5152).
  • ppa-packaging unnecessarily uses sudo.
  • ppa-packaging uses obsolete ndnsec-* wrappers.
  • ppa-packaging unnecessarily depends on Python2 and libboost-all-dev.

Any specific tools or language

  • C++, Boost C++ libraries, Debian packaging

Expected outcomes

  • Patches submitted to Gerrit for a subset of bugs, depending on actual team size and developer expertise.

6. PIT Token in ndn-cxx and python-ndn

[Pitch Slides]({% asset ndn-hackathon2110-proposal6.pdf @path %})

Project Lead:

  • Junxiao Shi

Preferred Team Size:

  • 2

Target Participants:

  • People with NDN code development experience

How will your proposal benefit NDN?

  • unlock better performance

Briefly describe the tasks: Accept and return PIT token on producer side of ndn-cxx and python-ndn. Test with YaNFD (via TCP transport with non-local scope).

Any specific tools or language

  • C++, ndn-cxx, Python 3, python-ndn

Expected outcomes

  • Get it implemented in at least one library, depending on developer expertise

7. Mini-NDN improvements

[Pitch Slides]({% asset ndn-hackathon2110-proposal7.pdf @path %})
