ISMA workshop on routing & topology: oct.02 http://www.caida.org/workshops/isma/0210/ISMAagenda.xml DNS performance analysis by cc/TLD invariance of Internet RTT spectrum (surprising) evolution of bgp system at AS, prefix, and IP granularities introduce semi-global prefix and related taxonomy dispel myths of BGP growth and churn (rates and contributors) route dampening considered harmful using BGP beacon (unused prefix announced and withdrawn at well-known times) lots about topology/policy/event inferences from BGP data Patrignani, Gao, Schulzrinne, Nicol, Feamster (Jean: Feamster's prefix clustering work) bgp convergence and scalability (anja&olaf) UDP/TCP performance during BGP update activity (avi) comparison of routeviews and ripe data for bgp analysis (tudor) data sets seem congruent aggregated workload data behaves differently (globalcrossing)
