Internet under Threat: Simulation of Survivability with INESS
نویسندگان
چکیده
There are several studies analysing the Internet’s topology to obtain insights into the consequences of disturbances. But concentrating on topology misses the point that the Internet’s survivability depends on the relationship of topology, capacity and traffic. Using the INESS simulation model we compare several disturbances of Internet exchange points to reveal the consequences for the survivability of the Internet. We classify disturbances in the aggregated Internet Exchange Points (IX) Frankfurt, Los Angeles, London, Paris, Miami, San Francisco, San Francisco & Los Angeles together, and Tokyo along two dimensions: packet loss and the number other of significantly hampered Internet exchange points. Two important phenomena of disturbances in networks are revealed: the “remote effect” (“Fernwirkung”) and the “Janus face”.

Improving rotorcraft survivability to RPG attack using inverse methods
This paper presents the results of a preliminary investigation of optimal threat evasion strategies for improving the survivability of rotorcraft under attack by rocket propelled grenades (RPGs). The basis of this approach is the application of inverse simulation techniques pioneered for simulation of aggressive helicopter manoeuvres to the RPG engagement problem. In this research, improvements...
متن کاملOptimal Coding Subgraph Selection under Survivability Constraint
Nowadays communication networks have become an essential and inevitable part of human life. Hence, there is an ever-increasing need for expanding bandwidth, decreasing delay and data transfer costs. These needs necessitate the efficient use of network facilities. Network coding is a new paradigm that allows the intermediate nodes in a network to create new packets by combining the packets recei...
متن کاملVirtual Experiments to Determine Behind-armor Debris for Survivability Analysis
When a projectile perforates the armor of a vehicle, the residual projectile entering the vehicle is accompanied by a much wider cloud of behind-armor debris (BAD) generated by stress wave interactions. BAD plays an important role in the evaluation of survivability of crew and components in a vehicle under fire. Survivability/vulnerability analysis codes (e.g., MUVES) require an input of BAD ch...
متن کاملEvaluation of network resilience, survivability, and disruption tolerance: analysis, topology generation, simulation, and experimentation - Invited paper
As the Internet becomes increasingly important to all aspects of society, the consequences of disruption become increasingly severe. Thus it is critical to increase the resilience and survivability of future networks. We define resilience as the ability of the network to provide desired service even when challenged by attacks, large-scale disasters, and other failures. This paper describes a co...
