....that we can at least draw qualitative conclusions from the data we have. The main contribution of this paper is an analysis of the graph theoretic properties (Section IV) as well as the geographic structure (Section V) of these ASs (for determining the geo location of routers, we use GeoTrack [24]) Our analyses uncover some commonalities and differences between these ASs. Specifically, our main findings are: There exists high variability in the degree distributions of individual ASs, as well as in the overall distributions of POP sizes (in term of number of routers) Contrary to previous ....
....But, if A is marked as not belonging , and C as belonging to AS we mark B as belonging to AS (all our previous heuristics would have pruned other interfaces) for a similar reason. Assigning Router Geographic Locations: After we identified the routers that belong to an AS, we used GeoTrack [24] to determine the geographic location of each of the routers. GeoTrack is a tool for determining the geographic location of Internet hosts. To do this, GeoTrack uses heuristics based on the DNS names to find the locations of the routers topologically close to hosts. We use these heuristics in our ....

....approximated by the geographic distance between those two nodes. This particular assumption has not been validated by any measurement study. There has been at least one measurement study that suggests that geographic distance between hosts correlates well with the propagation latency between them [15]. However, it is generally believable that the propagation latency of a link on the router level topology can be well estimated by the geographic distance between the ends of the link. The one exception to this is the case when a link in the router level topology corresponds to a link layer tunnel ....
....through one or more geographic locations before reaching the end of the link. At the very least, the geographic distance can be used to establish a lower bound on the propagation latency for such a link. To assign geographic location to nodes in our router level topology, we used the Geotrack tool [15]. This tool uses heuristics based on DNS names to infer node locations. In many cases, Geotrack cannot assign locations to nodes. In these cases, a node was assigned the location of the topologically nearest node for which Geotrack could assign a location (if there was more than one such neighbor, ....

....AS numbers to latitude longitude values. NetGeo s database is built using whois lookups to the ARIN, RIPE, and APNIC servers. Ixia s IxMapper [20] database, extends NetGeo by using other data sources and heuristics, including geographically based hostname conventions. Padmanabhan and Subramanian [30] show that this hostname based mapping is accurate up to the granularity of a city. Another mapping tool is Akamai s EdgeScape [10] which uses geographical information gathered from ISPs along with hostname conventions to resolve IPs to their geographical locations. Besides Ixia and Akamai, other ....
....to population density. To answer this question, we subdivided each region into patches of size 75 arcminutes 75 arc minutes. At the latitudes studied, this creates patches about 90 miles on a side. This size is much larger than the median location error reported by Padmanabhan and Subramanian [30] for their toolset, which employs techniques similar to (and a subset of) those used by IxMapper and EdgeScape. Within each patch, we tally the population and the number of routers or interfaces. The results are plotted on log log scale in Figure 2, for the two datasets and three regions. Each ....

Comparison with Geotrack (US sites only) Using 1,000 US university sites with known geographic locations, comparing their NetGeo inferred locations with the corresponding locations inferred by the Geotrack method (see for example [26]) we found that the NetGeo based locations are slightly more accurate than those produced by Geotrack (while the median difference between the former and the actual locations was 0, it was about 80 miles for the Geotrack related differences) Comparison with Geotrack (random sites) Using 660 ....

....approximate topology. The physical approach determines the physical links that connect the network together, including switches that are the internal nodes along the path. The physical approach, when combined with details about capacity and load, allows detailed modeling of LANs [2, 13] and WANs [8, 18]. The functional approach makes use of end to end information. Functional topologies can be used to represent connections according to perceived performance or to represent shared media networks that are not amenable to a typical graph representation. The functional approach uses virtual nodes to ....

....in) or control the availability of data based on user location (territorial rights management akin to TV broadcast rights) Each application may have a different requirement on the resolution of location information needed. We present several novel techniques, collectively referred to as IP2Geo [24], that approach the location mapping problem from different angles. These techniques exploit various properties of and observations on the Internet such as hierarchical addressing and correlation between delay and distance. We have analyzed a variety of data sets both to refine these techniques ....
....path from a host in Berkeley to one in Harvard may look as follows: Berkeley San Francisco New York Boston Cambridge. The level of detail in the geographic path would depend on how precisely we are able to determine the locations of the intermediate routers in the path. We use GeoTrack [24], a tool we have developed for determining the geographic path of routes. Our study is based on extensive traceroute data gathered from 20 hosts distributed across the U.S. and Europe and also traceroute data gathered by Paxson [53] in 1995. Internet routes can be highly circuitous [26] For ....
