| Guidelines |
| Discuss the most up to date methods of alias resolution.
For example: - DNS based - source IP based - IP identification based - record route (TCP Sidecar) based - graph based - analytical (AAR, APAR) Propose a combination or modification of analyzed methods or a new method in attempt to achieve better accuracy of alias resolution. Implement a tool for resolving aliases in trace route data sets and describe its performance. |

| Preliminary scope of work |
| A common problem of all Internet mapping efforts based on traceroute tool is IP alias resolution.
Routers often utilize multiple interfaces. When such a router is placed on administration boundaries, these interfaces can have non-adjacent IP addresses and DNS names. The challenge of this thesis is to find out which of the revealed router interfaces are aliases, meaning they belong to the same router. Because grouping of interfaces can have various granularity (router, ISP, geographical areas, etc.), we use more general term "Node Alias Resolution". |
