Information-Centric Networking (ICN) Based Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity (DRBC) of Bangladesh

We are proposing an Information-Centric Networking (ICN) technology-based solution for a Disaster Recovery Management System (DRMS) for a country such as Bangladesh where disasters happen almost annually. Bangladesh has very well-developed disaster management systems, plans, and processes. Due to well-technologically based systems of disaster management in remote locations or during devastating disasters, disaster activities are delayed or failed. Geographically, Bangladesh is disaster-prone; every year, the country faces a lot of economic damage. This is important to have the DRMS ready and available to mitigate, prepare, and communicate with different groups to reduce the loss and save lives. This ICN technology-based disaster management can play an important role in Information, relief, shelters, and emergency management. Communication technology can play a vital role in technology-based disaster management. Also, during a disaster, communication systems and other related infrastructures are damaged due to power failure, and other damage facts. An ICN based Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity (DRBC) system has a higher response ratio, efficient performance, low communication overhead and path distance, and less distributed delay. Also, it has been proven that ICN is a new paradigm with mobility, security, and network traffic that can be applied to highly available secure communication. We propose an ICN based Disaster Recovery System for Bangladesh that will efficiently manage the natural and manmade disasters in the country. This proposed system can be customized and applied to other countries based on their needs.
