How reliable are the website popularity rankings like the Alexa top one million that many of us use in our research? We analysed four ranking lists and discovered the impact they have on research results and how easily they can be manipulated. For this reason, we created Tranco, a new improved p…

When withdrawing an IP prefix from the Internet, an origin network sends BGP withdraw messages, which are expected to propagate to all BGP routers that hold an entry for that IP prefix in their routing table. Yet network operators occasionally report issues where routers maintain routes to IP prefi…

Statistical characterisation of Round Trip Times (RTT) series is useful for network management. For example, if several paths are available between a source and a destination, say in a routing overlay context, it may be useful to select the path dynamically based on some inference on the current Qu…
