Open source release for CCN -- a new approach to networking
PARC just released an early version of open source infrastructure software and protocol specifications for our "Content-Centric Networking (CCN)" architecture. Our goal is to enable experimentation in the network research community and establish a foundation of open core protocols for content networking. We are also beginning to work with clients to explore new business solutions enabled by the CCN approach.

Networking
Content-centric networking is PARC's vision for taking the next step in data communication -- a change in network architecture to make content retrieval by name, not location, the fundamental operation of the network.

Security & privacy
With expertise in applied cryptography, human factors, and network security, PARC is developing new technologies that intelligently support usable security and privacy for ubiquitous computing environments.
