Route Bazaar: Automatic Interdomain Contract Negotiation
نویسندگان
چکیده
While it is widely acknowledged that the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) has many flaws, most of the proposed fixes focus solely on improving the stability and security of its path computation. However, because interdomain routing involves contracts between Autonomous Systems (ASes), this paper argues that contractual and routing issues should be tackled jointly. We propose Route Bazaar, a backward-compatible system for flexible Internet connectivity. Inspired by the decentralized construction of trust in cryptocurrencies, Route Bazaar uses a decentralized public ledger and cryptography to provide ASes with automatic means to form, establish, and verify end-to-end connectivity agreements.

متن کاملOn Reducing the Impact of Interdomain Route Changes
Interdomain route changes are frequent and they can have negative impact on a network’s operation: during route convergence, packets get delayed and dropped; after route convergence, changes in the egress point for reaching a destination can alter the network’s intradomain traffic patterns and trigger new traffic-engineering. In this paper, we look into reducing the impact of interdomain route ...

In this paper, we focus on outsourcing activities optimization problem in single period setting. In some situations, capacity planning or outsourcing is a one-time event and can be modeled as a single period problem. The aim of this research is to balance the trade-off between two echelons of a supply chain consisting of a single outsourcer and a single subcontractor. Each part is composed of a...
متن کاملPlanned Route Based Negotiation for Collision Avoidance Between Vessels
Automatic vessel collision-avoidance systems have been studied in the fields of artificial intelligence and navigation for decades. And to facilitate automatic collision-avoidance decision-making in two-vessel-encounter situation, several expert and fuzzy expert systems have been developed. However, none of them can negotiate with each other as seafarers usually do when they intend to make a ha...
