* The inability to provide efficient solutions to security problems such as authentication, access control, integrity and confidentiality, since they were not part of the initial design. As stated in <ref>D. Clark, L. Chapin, V. Cerf, R. Braden and R. Hobby. Towards the Future Internet Architecture. {{IETF RFC|1287}} (Informational), December 1991</ref> “experience has shown that it is difficult to add security to a protocol suite unless it is built into the architecture from the beginning”.

[[File:RINA-DAF.png|thumb|350px|Figure 2. Distributed Application Processes (DAPs) and their components]]
RINA is the result of an effort that tries to work out the general principles in [[computer networking]] that applies to everything. RINA is the specific architecture, implementation, testing platform and ultimately deployment of the theory. This theory is informally known as the Inter-Process Communication “IPC model” <ref>John Day, Ibrahim Matta and Karim Mattar. Networking is IPC: A guiding principle to a better Internet. In Proceedings of the 2008 ACM CoNEXT Conference. ACM, 2008</ref> although it also deals with concepts and results that are generic for any distributed application and not just for networking.
