Information-centric networking (ICN) has been developed as a potential candidate for future networks. In this model, users are provided with content rather than communication channels between the different hosts. The ICN network has several problems such as scalability issues and bandwidth consumption. However, software-defined networking (SDN) has been proposed to improve the networking architectures. The goal of our paper is to propose a new approach to named-data networking (NDN) based on the paradigm of SDN. Our work introduces various research studies carried out in the SDN and ICN contexts. We first present the SDN architecture. Then, we focus on work that combines ICN and SDN architectures. Finally, we show the effects of using the SDN architecture on the named-data network (NDN). Our experimental results show that the use of the SDN architecture has a positive effect on NDN network performance.
