Analysis of Communities of Interest in Data Networks

摘要: Communities of interest (COI) have been applied in a variety environments ranging from characterizing the online buying behavior individuals to detecting fraud telephone networks. The common thread among these applications is that historical COI an individual can be used predict future as well other members COI. It would clearly beneficial if COIs same manner characterize and hosts within data network. In this paper, we introduce methodology for evaluating various aspects IP context study, broadly define collection interacting hosts. We apply our using collected large enterprise network over eleven week period. First, study distributions stability size COIs. Second, evaluate multiple heuristics determine stable core set sets time. Third, how much communication not captured by sets.
