In this paper we introduce a framework for analyzing local properties of Internet connectivity.
We compare BGP and probed topology data, finding that currently probed topology data …

Network topology plays a vital role in understanding the performance of network
applications and protocols. Thus, recently there has been tremendous interest in generating …

Several recent studies have focused on generating Internet topology graphs. Topology
graphs have been used to predict growth patterns of prefixes and traffic flow as well as for …

The study of network topology has attracted a great deal of attention in the last decade, but
has been hampered by a lack of accurate data. Existing methods for measuring topology …

A number of recent studies characterize AS-level topology of the Internet by exploiting
connectivity information contained in BGP routing tables. In this paper, we present an …

We calculate an extensive set of characteristics for Internet AS topologies extracted from the
three data sources most frequently used by the research community: traceroutes, BGP, and …

The study of the Internet topology has recently received much attention from the research
community. In particular, the observation that the network graph has interesting properties …

This paper presents a network layer Internet topology collection tool called tracenet.
Compared to traceroute, tracenet can collect a more complete topology information on an …

Recent studies on AS-level Internet connectivity have attracted considerable attention.
These studies have exclusively relied on BGP data from the Oregon route-views [University …

At the inter-domain level, the Internet topology can be represented by a graph with
Autonomous Systems (ASes) as nodes and AS peerings as links. This AS-level topology …
