CAIDA has been measuring, analyzing, modeling, and visualizing Internet topology since 1998. We seek to characterize macroscopic Internet connectivity using both topological and geographical representations at multiple levels of aggregation granularity. This research goal is particularly challenging due to inconsistencies in different measurement tools and counterincentives for ISPs to support ...
CAIDA gathers Internet data from and across a wide variety of Internet infrastructure, including commercial, educational, research, government, and exchange point links. We analyze and visualize the collected data to better understand current and future network topology, routing, security, DNS, workload, performance, and economic issues. In addition to research, analysis, and visualization ...
