ICN Metis

Metis is a CCNx 1.0 forwarder written in C using the PARCLibrary package. A forwarder is responsible for receiving wire format packets from one place and forwarding them to another. When a forwarder runs on an end host, it typically forwards packets between applications, themselves, and between applications and the network. When a forwarder runs as an intermediate system, it typically forwarders between peers, though it may have a small number of specialized applications, such as routing protocols, running on the device. Metis is the CCNx 1.0 forwarder that implements the CCNx 1.0 Semantics and Messages draft standards.
