With the proliferation of transistor count in VLSI design, more and more design groups try to figure out a way to efficiently combine their designs. The Internet features distributed computing and resource sharing. Consequently, a hierarchical floorplan design can be adequately solved in the Internet environment. In this paper, we address the problem of area minimization floorplan design in the...

This paper discusses a class of problem, called inconsistent context, .which appears due to the mobility of ad hoc nodes among multi-homed Internet domains, the ad hoc routing forwarding strategies, and the requirement of backward/ forward traffic of 2-way connection, e.g. TCP, which must be transmitted through the registered Internet gateways. Solutions are then proposed, which either reduce o...

Most Internet measurement studies utilize traceroute-collected path traces to build Internet maps. In this paper, we measure the impact of alias resolution problem on Internet topology measurement studies. Our analysis shows that the alias resolution process has a significant effect on the observed characteristics of the topology maps.

There has been significant interest on the impact of cascade effects on the diffusion of networking technology upgrades in the Internet. Thinking of the global Internet as a graph, where each node represents an economically-motivated Internet Service Provider (ISP), a key problem is to determine the smallest set of nodes that can trigger a cascade that causes every other node in the graph to ad...

Nowadays, the internet and social networks become more popular than ever. People in all ages use the internet and communicate by that. One of the most terrible events in our daily life is to disconnect from the internet and lose the connections. It may also influence on the economics; so the sustainability in this area is necessary. Internet service provider companies are the executors of selli...
