To press forward its mission of promoting the engineering
and maintenance of a robust, scalable Internet, CAIDA focuses its
resources on various projects and areas of strategic interest.
These pages document the plans and status for these projects. Each
page provides a primary contact person who welcomes questions and
comments.
