After digging around on their website, it actually sounds like they see the current internet as P2P and they want to replace it (or at least have an alternative) that's concerned with routing between sources of information rather than peers/devices. Like in the video in the article, the guy's heart rate monitor, rather than having a constantly changing IP address as he moves through different networks, would be identified as "source of information about X's heartrate" (using an anonymous/opaque identifier I'm sure), and this "future internet" would be keeping track of how to route that information to the people who have access to and are subscribed to it. So the "future internet" routers would be kind of managing pubsub at the IP layer. That's what I gather from these pages, anyway: http://www.fp7-pursuit.eu/PursuitWeb/?page_id=338 http://www.fp7-pursuit.eu/PursuitWeb/?page_id=338 (prototype implementation; "Runs over Ethernet or raw IP") http://www.fp7-pursuit.eu/PursuitWeb/?page_id=179 http://www.fp7-pursuit.eu/PursuitWeb/?page_id=179 "Our Vision" While a model such as in IP networking enables a stream of data between two explicitly addressed endpoints (with total transparency as to the information represented in this sent data and the communication surrounding this exchange of data), the model envisioned in our aspiration elevates information onto the level of a first class citizen in the sense that data pieces are explicitly addressed and therefore directly embedded into the network, unlike in today’s IP-like networks.
