ABSTRACT
We propose a new approach to predict Internet network distance called Global Network Positioning (GNP). This approach models the Internet as a geometric space and distributedly computes geometric coordinates to characterize the positions of hosts in the Internet. By conducting Internet experiments, we show that the geometric distances implied by the GNP hosts coordinates can accurately predict the Internet network distances.

A network positioning system for the internet
ATEC '04: Proceedings of the annual conference on USENIX Annual Technical ConferenceNetwork positioning has recently been demonstrated to be a viable concept to represent the network distance relationships among Internet end hosts. Several subsequent studies have examined the potential benefits of using network position in applications,...
Improved positioning of cylindrical cutter for flank milling ruled surfaces
An optimized positioning procedure for flank milling ruled surfaces with cylindrical cutter is described in the paper. The tool axis trajectory surface is a ruled surface, which is generated by moving the tool axis. The proposition that the envelope ...
