Abstract

There is an increasing need for Internet hosts to be able to quickly and efficiently learn the distance, in terms of metrics such as latency or bandwidth, between Internet hosts. For example, to select the nearest of multiple equal-content web servers. This paper explores technical issues related to the creation of a public infrastructure service to provide such information. In so doing, we suggests an architecture, called IDMaps, whereby Internet distance information is distributed over the...
