Abstract

Computing in the Network (COIN) comes with the prospect of deploying processing functionality on networking devices, such as switches and network interface cards. While such functionality can be beneficial, it has to be carefully placed into the context of the general Internet communication and it needs to be clearly identified where and how those benefits apply. This document presents some use cases to demonstrate how a number of salient COIN-related applications can benefit from COIN. It further identifies their essential requirements, using normative language to provide a formalized structure for a subsequent analysis. It is a product of the Computing in the Network Research Group (COINRG). It is not an IETF product and it is not a standard.
