Internet has become a foundation of our modern society. However, all regions or countries do not have the same Internet access regarding quality especially in the Indian Ocean Area (IOA). To improve this quality it is important to have a…

Internet eXchange Points (IXPs) are Internet hubs that mainly provide the switching infrastructure to interconnect networks and exchange traffic. While the initial goal of IXPs was to bring together networks residing in the same city or…

The concept of the IXP, an Ethernet fabric central to the structure of the global Internet, is largely absent from the development of community-driven collaborative network infrastructure. The reasons for this are two-fold. IXPs exist in…

Internet eXchange Points (IXPs) are generally considered to be the successors of the four Network Access Points that were mandated as part of the decommissioning of the NSFNET in 1994/95 to facilitate the transition from the NSFNET to the…

The Internet topology is of high importance in designing networks and architectures, evaluating performance, and economics. Interconnections between domains (ASes), routers, and points of presence (PoPs), have been measured, analyzed, and…

Colocation facilities and Internet eXchange Points (IXPs) provide neutral places for concurrent networks to daily exchange terabytes of data traffic. Although very reliable, these facilities are not immune to failure and may experience…

One of the Internet's greatest strengths is the degree to which it facilitates access to any of its resources from users anywhere in the world. However, users in the developing world have complained of websites blocking their countries. We…

Internet eXchange Points (IXPs) are core components of the Internet infrastructure where Internet Service Providers (ISPs) meet and exchange traffic. During the last few years, the number and size of IXPs have increased rapidly, driving the…

The Internet provides access to communications, information and opportunity to people. Growth of technology and its benefits should penetrate down to every citizen of a country. Rural Areas without Internet access risk being left behind in…

Over the past decade, IXPs have been playing a key role in enabling interdomain connectivity. Their traffic volumes have grown dramatically and their physical presence has spread throughout the world. While the relevance of IXPs is…

Internet eXchange Points (IXP) are critical components of the Internet infrastructure that affect its performance, evolution, security and economics. In this work, we introduce techniques to augment the well-known traceroute tool with the…

A number of recent efforts aim to bridge the global digital divide, particularly with respect to Internet access. We take this endeavor one step further and argue that Internet access and web security go hand in glove in the developing…

The Internet provides global connectivity by virtue of a public core -- the routable public IP addresses that host services and to which cloud, enterprise, and home networks connect. Today the public core faces many challenges to uniform,…

Routing strives to connect all the Internet, but compete: political pressure threatens routing fragmentation; architectural changes such as private clouds, carrier-grade NAT, and firewalls make connectivity conditional; and commercial…

An information-centric network should realize significant economies by exploiting a favourable memory-bandwidth tradeoff: it is cheaper to store copies of popular content close to users than to fetch them repeatedly over the Internet. We…

The Internet, the world's largest and most pervasive network, lacks a transparent, granular view of its traffic patterns, volumes, and growth trends, hindering the networking community's understanding of its dynamics. This paper leverages…

Bolivia, a landlocked emerging country in South America, has one of the smallest networks in the whole Internet. Before the IXP implementation, delivering packets between national ISPs had to be sent them through international transit…

Access to fiber-optic connectivity in the Internet is traditionally offered either via lit circuits or dark fiber. Economic (capex vs. opex) and operational considerations (latency, capacity) dictate the choice between these two offerings,…

We advocate to create a \emph{spot} Internet transit market, where transit is sold using the under-utilized backbone capacity at a lower price. The providers can improve profit by capitalizing the perishable capacity, and customers can buy…

Internet-scale services rely on data partitioning and replication to provide scalable performance and high availability. Moreover, to reduce user-perceived response times and tolerate disasters (i.e., the failure of a whole datacenter),…
