Abstract

Internet protocols and traffic are the foundation of the internet and reflect the on-going digital transformation in the society. Internet protocols spread to potential adopters through several successive phases of implementation, commercialization, acquisition, and adoption. This protocol deployment process involves several stakeholders and varies depending on the deployment environment and the protocol in question. This complexity and the lack of comprehensive measurement studies call for a further conceptualization of measuring protocol diffusion along the whole deployment process. Therefore, this chapter develops a framework for measuring the deployment of internet protocols, consisting of deployment steps, deployment models, deployment measures, and data sources. The illustrative results indicate that protocol deployment is driven by applications, and show the existence of large deployment gaps between the protocol possession and usage.
