Today's talk (which I foolishly advertised as happening last Friday in a
previous email) will take place at 16:00 in 66-72 Gower Street, room
GS/102. I hope that you will be able to join us. The speaker is Noa
Zilberman from Cambridge.
The Internet PoP-Level Map
ABSTRACT:
Service providers tend to place multiple routers in a single location
called a Point of Presence (PoP), which serves a certain area. Inferring
PoP level maps is gaining interest due to its importance to many areas,
e.g., for tracking the Internet evolution and studying its properties.
In this talk I introduce a novel structural approach to automatically
generate large scale Internet PoP level maps using traceroute
measurements from multiple locations. As an example for the usage of
PoPs, I show how they can be used to test the accuracy of IP Geolocation
services. I also introduce other applications of PoP level maps, such as
leveraging them to improve AS Type of Relationships (ToR) inference. The
last part of this talk sets the foundations to the development of an
evolution model of the Internet at the PoP level, using geographical,
economical and demographical information to achieve an understanding of
the dynamics of the Internet's structure.
