Thursday at SIGCOMM 2008
Network Discovery from Passive Measurements was interesting work on cartography. Use of the Record Route option in traceroute, is something we need to look at more seriously than we have. They went specifically after the failure of RocketFuel, that there are many interfaces on a router. Then it got into a daunting disjunctive logic model, which was not something to try at home (exponential in sample size). But it did a lot better than RocketFuel.
Nathan from UW is using many traceroute hacks to try to improve RocketFuel.
Our paper, iSPY: Detecting IP Prefix Hijacking on My Own, went well, probably because the wireless was not working. 🙂
Had a good lunch at Cafe Flora with JR, MM, and two JR students.
None of the p2p presentations grabbed me. And none of the wireless papers either, but it’s far from any of my interests.
WW was also interested in control plane visibility.
