Quantifying Network Denial of Service: A Location Service Case Study
Yan Chen, Adam Bargteil, Randy H. Katz and John Kubiatowicz

Proceeding of Third International Conference on Information and Communications Security, Xian, China, Nov. 2001.

Network Denial of Service (DoS) attacks are increasing in frequency, severity and sophistication, making it desirable to measure the resilience of systems to DoS attacks. In this paper, we propose a simulation-based methodology and apply it to attacks on object location services such as DNS. Our results allow us to contrast the DoS resilience of three distinct architectures for object location.
