Resilience for Future Networking: Distributed Monitoring for Challenge Detection
Summary
This project will investigate how to make the Internet more resilient to challenges such as malicious attacks, faults and overloads. The project is part of the ResumeNet project (on which the supervisor is a lead researcher) supported by the Future Internet Research and Experimentation (FIRE) program of the European Union.

Synopsis
Society increasingly depends on communication networks and in particular the Internet for just about every aspect of daily life. With this increasing dependence the consequences of networked service disruption become more significant.This project, which is part of a major international collaboration, will investigate how to systematically embed resilience into the future Internet. It will specifically address how to define network resilience in terms of measurable metrics, which can be used to characterise a set of malicious or normal operational challenges. It will then develop and experiment with novel, distributed mechanisms for monitoring resilience to detect challenges as they occur.
