In order to promote a better understanding of the Internet, CAIDA develops new visualization techniques to display Internet data and presents them as poster-sized prints for the research community. These posters are made available for download below.

Posters
Visualization
represents a macroscopic snapshot of the Internet for a two week
interval. The graph reflects IP addresses and IP links (immediately
adjacent addresses in a traceroute-like path) of topology data
gathered from 22 monitors probing destinations spread across
globally routable network prefixes. For more information, see

Backscatter Posters
Visualization
represents the monitoring of global Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks
from a single locations. Backscatter analysis is a novel technique
that provides DoS activity using only local monitors.
DNS
Posters
CAIDA seeks to
characterize the dynamics and performance of the Domain Name System
(DNS), a critical infrastructural component of the Internet. We
also collect data in support of long-term research of the DNS
behavior and stability. To see more about CAIDA's DNS efforts, see
the DNS Research page.
Security
Posters
Security research
at CAIDA includes analysis of network-based attacks e.g.
denial-of-service attacks, data hosting and provision, and
measurement and statistical analysis of the trends and impact that
certain Internet worms and viruses have on the global network
infrastructure.

CAIDA Analysis of Malicious Software
Internet Outages Posters
These posters are
produced as the result of an experimental operational deployment to
validate and extend an empirically grounded methodology for
detection and analysis of large-scale Internet outages. For more
information, see Detection and
analysis of large-scale Internet infrastructure outages.

Ark
Posters
Archipelago (Ark
for short) is CAIDA's next-generation active measurement
infrastructure and represents an evolution of the skitter
infrastructure that has been serving the network research community
for more than 8 years. For more information, see the Archipelago Measurement Infrastructure.

Address Space Posters
Internet address space allocation and utilization is visualized here using heatmaps. A heat map is a
graphical representation of data where the values taken by a
variable in a two-dimensional map are represented as colors.
IPv4 BGP
Geopolitical Analysis Poster
The worldwide
distribution of Internet resources and address space is highly
non-uniform. We present an analysis comparing five demographic
measures against three measures of Internet resources, stratified
by continent with substratification by country. We found that two
continents and one country consume a much larger share of Internet
resource allocation than predicted by their demographic measures of
size. For more information see IPv4 BGP Geopolitical
Analysis.

Infosheets
Over time, CAIDA has produced "infosheets", small flyers or handouts that give a brief overview of our efforts in a compact distributable format.
