TLDR
An overview of the components and capabilities of the Akamai platform is given, and some insight into its architecture, design principles, operation, and management is offered.Abstract:Â
Comprising more than 61,000 servers located across nearly 1,000 networks in 70 countries worldwide, the Akamai platform delivers hundreds of billions of Internet interactions daily, helping thousands of enterprises boost the performance and reliability of their Internet applications. In this paper, we give an overview of the components and capabilities of this large-scale distributed computing platform, and offer some insight into its architecture, design principles, operation, and management.read more

Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach
James F. Kurose,Keith W. Ross +1 more
TL;DR: Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach Featuring the Internet explains the engineering problems that are inherent in communicating digital information from point to point, and presents the mathematics that determine the best path, show some code that implements those algorithms, and illustrate the logic by using excellent conceptual diagrams.

It's not easy being green
TL;DR: This paper uses FORTE to show that carbon taxes or credits are impractical in incentivizing carbon output reduction by providers of large-scale Internet applications and can reduce carbon emissions by 10% without increasing the mean latency nor the electricity bill.

Fundamental Limits of Caching in Wireless D2D Networks
TL;DR: A caching strategy based on deterministic assignment of subpackets of the library files, and a coded delivery strategy where the users send linearly coded messages to each other in order to collectively satisfy their demands are proposed.

Video stream quality impacts viewer behavior: inferring causality using quasi-experimental designs
TL;DR: This work is the first to establish a causal relationship between video quality and viewer behavior, taking a step beyond purely correlational studies and using Quasi-Experimental Designs, a novel technique adapted from the medical and social sciences.

Fundamental Limits of Caching in Wireless D2D Networks
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered a D2D infrastructure-less network where communication is restricted to be single-hop and proposed a caching strategy based on deterministic assignment of subpackets of the library files, and a coded delivery strategy where the users send linearly coded messages to each other in order to collectively satisfy their demands.

A case for end system multicast
TL;DR: The potential benefits of transferring multicast functionality from end systems to routers significantly outweigh the performance penalty incurred and the results indicate that the performance penalties are low both from the application and the network perspectives.

Consistent hashing and random trees: distributed caching protocols for relieving hot spots on the World Wide Web
TL;DR: A family of caching protocols for distrib-uted networks that can be used to decrease or eliminate the occurrence of hot spots in the network, based on a special kind of hashing that is called consistent hashing.

Resilient overlay networks
TL;DR: It is found that forwarding packets via at most one intermediate RON node is sufficient to overcome faults and improve performance in most cases, demonstrating the benefits of moving some of the control over routing into the hands of end-systems.
