Prior measurement studies of the Internet have explored traffic and topology, but have
largely ignored edge hosts. While the number of Internet hosts is very large, and many are …

Multihoming has traditionally been employed by stub networks to enhance the reliability of
their network connectivity. With the advent of commercial" intelligent route control" products …

Network operators must have control over the flow of traffic into, out of, and across their
networks. However, the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) does not facilitate common traffic …

Information about the geographic locality of IP prefixes can be useful for understanding the
issues related to IP address allocation, aggregation, and BGP routing table growth. In this …

The IP address consumption and the global routing table size are two of the vital parameters
of the Internet growth. In this paper we quantitatively characterize the IPv4 address …

The rapid growth of global routing tables has raised concerns among many Internet Service
Providers. The most immediate concern regarding routing scalability is the size of the …

Recent advances in scale-free networks have claimed that their topologies are very weak
against attacks. The inhomogeneous connectivity distribution of large-scale current …

Many challenges to the Internet including global routing scalability have drawn significant
attention from both industry and academia, and have generated several new ideas for the …

Understanding BGP routing dynamics is critical to the solid growth and maintenance of the
Internet routing infrastructure. However, while the most extensive study on BGP dynamics is …

Computer networks such as the Internet or datacenter networks have become aa crucial
infrastructure for many criticial services. Accordingly, it is important that such networks …
