The increasing popularity of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks has led to growing interest in characterizing their topology and dynamics [1–4], essential for proper design and effecti...
In this paper we highlight a number of challenges that arise in using crawling to measure the size, topology, and dynamism of distributed botnets. These challenges include traffic...

Wireless sensor networks are typically deployed to measure the information field, rather than create an information field. However, by utilizing the radio on sensor nodes, it is...
The presence of "unwanted" (or background) traffic in the Internet is a well-known fact. In principle any network that has been engineered without taking its presence in...
—Many large-scale distributed systems can benefit from a service that allows them to select among alternative nodes based on their relative network positions. A variety of appro...
