The P2P Network Experiment Council's Activities and Experiments with Application-Layer Traffic Optimization in Japan
RFC 6875, “The P2P Network Experiment Council's Activities and Experiments with Application-Layer Traffic Optimization in Japan”, is an Informational document published in February 2013 by S. Kamei, T. Momose, T. Inoue, T. Nishitani. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document describes experiments that clarify how an approach similar to Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) was effective in reducing network traffic. These experiments were performed in Japan by the P2P Network Experiment Council in an attempt to harmonize peer-to-peer (P2P) technology with network infrastructure. Based on what was learned from these experiments, this document provides some suggestions that might be useful for the ALTO architecture and especially for application-independent ALTO- like server operation.
