An Analysis of Internet Content Delivery Systems

by Stefan Saroiu, Krishna P. Gummadi, Richard J. Dunn, Steven D. Gribble, Henry M. Levy , 2002
"... In the span of only a few years, the Internet has experienced an astronomical increase in the use of specialized content delivery systems, such as content delivery networks and peer-to-peer file sharing systems. Therefore, an understanding of content delivery on the Internet now requires a detailed ..."
