Overlay network is an effective way for constructing end-to-end high-quality network
services. Service Overlay Network (SON) leverages existing data transmission infrastructure …

Overlay networks have recently emerged as an effective means to provide a flexible, robust,
and scalable platform for distributed applications, while leaving the underlying Internet …

An overlay network is a logical abstraction of the underlying physical network, comprising
end nodes and paths between end-node pairs. Many applications, such as multicast and …

Service overlay networks (SONs) can provide end-to-end quality of service guarantees in
the Internet without requiring significant changes to the underlying network infrastructure. A …

Overlay networks have emerged as a promising paradigm for providing customizable and
reliable services at the application layer, such as fault-resilient routing, multicast, and …

By allowing end hosts to make independent routing decisions at the application level,
different overlay networks may unintentionally interfere with each other. This paper …

Because of its decentralized nature and the lack of the required cooperations among the
Internet autonomous systems, the current Internet is unable to provide end-to-end QoS …

Service Overlay Network (SON) was proposed to alleviate the difficulties encountered in
providing end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees. SON is able to provide QoS …

The Internet has scaled massively over the past 15 years to extend to billions of users.
These users increasingly require extensive applications and capabilities from the Internet …

We address the problem of optimal routing in overlay networks. An overlay network is
constructed by adding new overlay nodes on top of a legacy network. The overlay nodes are …
