The IPv4 addressing scheme has been the standard for Internet communication since it was
established in the 1960s. However, the enormous increase in Internet traffic usage has been …

Using domain names for routing, instead of IP prefixes, has the potential to address many of
the core outstanding issues in today's Internet. To initiate research in that direction, this …

The applications of the Internet have evolved from being host-centric to being more content-
oriented, such as file sharing, online audio and video applications, which constitute the …

Due to the rapid growth of the Internet and increasing address needs, IPv4 addresses are
fast depleting. A new Internet addressing protocol, IPv6 with wide range of addresses has …

Ternary content-addressable memory has been widely used to perform fast routing lookups.
It is able to accomplish the best matching prefix searching in O (1) time without considering …

The increase in routing table sizes, number of updates, traffic, speed of links and migration
to IPv6 have made IP address lookup, based on longest prefix matching, a major bottleneck …

Internet routing is at an important crossroad. The current global routing table, which is
largely based on IPv4 addresses, has been growing at an alarming rate over the last few …

With the growth of Internet users and services, the IP address has been exhausted. In order
to solve this problem, the short term solution was presented, ie, CIDR (classless inter …

We suggest a new simple forwarding technique to speed-up IP destination address lookup.
The technique is a natural extension of IP, requires 5 bits in the IP header (IPv4, 7 in IPv6) …

The IPv4 address space is quickly getting exhausted, putting a tremendous pressure on the
adoption of even more NAT levels or IPv6. On the other hand, many authors propose the …
