Abstract

The paper defines a method to extract a part of a graph, which corresponding to a network (Internet) topology covering a certain area. The method refers to data gathered within Opte Project and describing the Internet topology. The extracted parts of graphs have been analyzed in terms of the number of neighbours, longest path length and existence of cycles. Then the resulting topologies are used to model transient behaviour of wide area networks with the use of fluid-flow approximation.
