IoT devices are subject to severe energy, memory, and computation power constraints. Employing NDN for the IoT is a recent approach to accommodate these issues. To gain a deeper insight into how different network parameters affect energy consumption, analyzing a range of parameters using hyperparameter optimization seems reasonable. The experiments from this work\u2019s ndnSIM-based hyperparameter setup indicate that the data packet size has the most significant impact on energy consumption, followed by the caching scheme, caching strategy, and finally, the forwarding strategy. The energy footprint of these parameters is orders of magnitude apart. Surprisingly, the packet request sequence influences the caching parameters\u2019 energy footprint more than the graph size and topology. Regarding energy consumption, the results indicate that data compression may be more relevant than expected, and caching may be more significant than the forwarding strategy. The framework for ndnSIM developed in this work can be used to simulate NDN networks more efficiently. Furthermore, the work presents a valuable basis for further research on the effect of specific parameter combinations not examined before.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/fi16020061","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,16]],"date-time":"2024-02-16T06:00:25Z","timestamp":1708063225000},"page":"61","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Enhancing Energy Efficiency in IoT-NDN via Parameter Optimization"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Dennis","family":"Papenfu\u00df","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Insitute of Telematics, University of L\u00fcbeck, 23562 L\u00fcbeck, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1037-3404","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bennet","family":"Gerlach","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Insitute of Telematics, University of L\u00fcbeck, 23562 L\u00fcbeck, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1292-8925","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stefan","family":"Fischer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Insitute of Telematics, University of L\u00fcbeck, 23562 L\u00fcbeck, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9991-9399","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohamed Ahmed","family":"Hail","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Insitute of Telematics, University of L\u00fcbeck, 23562 L\u00fcbeck, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Shang, W., Bannis, A., Liang, T., Wang, Z., Yu, Y., Afanasyev, A., Thompson, J., Burke, J., Zhang, B., and Zhang, L.
