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. ...

In this paper, we investigate the suitability of embedding Internet hosts into a Euclidean space given their pairwise distances (as measured by round-trip time). Using the classic...
Estimating end-to-end Internet distance can benefit many applications and services, such as efficient overlay construction, overlay routing and location, and peer-topeer systems. ...

— In this paper, we propose to use coordinates-based mechanisms in a peer-to-peer architecture to predict Internet network distance (i.e. round-trip propagation and transmission ...
The responsiveness of networked applications is limited by communications delays, making network distance an important parameter in optimizing the choice of communications peers. S...
