Locating Internet Instability under Simultaneous Events
Hong Jun Liu, Xiao Hu, Dan Zhao, Xi Cheng Lu · Advanced engineering forum · 2011
Locating internet instability is very important to diagnose internet problems. The existing methods are under the assumption that instability is triggered by only one event, and these methods are not applicable for the scenario of simultaneous events. This paper presents the first study on characterizing the simultaneous events, finding out where the multiple events happened could be visible and how many events are simultaneously happened. Furthermore, a novel scheme is proposed to accurately pinpoint the origins of instability under simultaneous events by exploring cycles, which is theoretically proved to be feasible.
