- Internet maps are blooming
- It is important to understand network topology to predict its performance and its resilience to attacks. This is why computer scientists at UC San Diego have developed new algorithms which create Internet maps. Their maps -- looking like digital dandelions -- show Internet nodes and their linkages. But they are...

- Multiobjective Network Design for Realistic Traffic Models
- Network topology design problems find application in several real life scenarios. However, most designs in the past either optimize for a single criterion like delay or assume simplistic traffic models like Poisson. Such assumptions make the solutions inapplicable in the practical world. This paper formulates and solves a multiobjective network...

- Finding Ethernet-Type Network Topology Is Not Easy
- This paper investigates the problem of finding a layer-2 network topology when the information available from SNMP MIB is incomplete. This paper proves that finding a network topology in this case is NP-hard. Further proves that deciding whether the given information defines a unique network topology is a co-NP-hard problem....

- Towards Topology Aware Networks
- This paper focuses on efficient protocols that enhance a network with topology awareness. This paper discusses centralized algorithms with provable performance, and introduces decentralized asynchronous heuristics that use only local information and local computations. These algorithms are based on distributed solutions of convex programs expressing optimization of various spectral properties...

- PortMarshaller (zip)
- PortMarshaller is a software-based TCP/IP port forwarder and network administration service. The software accepts connections on a particular TCP port, and establishes connections to a different TCP port to fulfill requests. This capability offers a solution to various network topology problems. Administrative Web interface allows the monitoring of connection and...

- Disk-Assisted Backup White Paper
- Advancements in technology and price reductions have recently made it possible to use disk together with tape to improve data protection. With shrinking backup windows and increasing amounts of data, users are adding more tape drives and implementing faster backup network topologies, including Storage Area Networks SANs. But for cost...

- Load Balancing in Arbitrary Network Topologies With Stochastic Adversarial Input
- This paper studies the long-term steady state performance of a simple, randomized, local load balancing technique under a broad range of input conditions. It assumes a system of n processors connected by an arbitrary network topology. Jobs are placed in the processors by a deterministic or randomized adversary. The adversary...

- CDMA-Based Network-on-Chip Architecture
- This paper presents a novel Network-on-Chip NoC architecture that is based on Code Division Multiple Access CDMA techniques. The orthogonality properties of a Walsh code are used to route data packets between resources. A star network topology allows a hierarchical switching platform to be constructed which can be scaled to...
