An ever-increasing thirst for information in recent years among consumers, researchers, and the general population has necessitated continuous growth of internet architecture and accessibility, an issue which, if not addressed properly, may inhibit the growth of the internet as a whole.
Solutions for Sustaining Scalability in Internet Growth investigates current issues impeding the growth of information architecture and explores methods for developing a wider-reaching and ever-evolving internet. The book presents viable solutions to some of the current threats to robust and pervasive information systems, enabling internet actors such as network providers, service providers, vendors, and regulatory bodies to ensure the creation of a more accessible and balanced internet.
The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:
Telecommunications technicians and researchers survey constraints and promising solutions for expanding the scalability limits of routing and forwarding tables on the Internet as it grows both larger and more complex. The topics include inter-domain traffic engineering using the origin preference attributes, the aggregatability of router forwarding tables, the routing architecture of next-generation Internet, a security analysis of the map-and-encap locator/identifier separation paradigm, and a metric-based proposal for a hierarchical approach to reducing power consumption in core and edge networks.
