Transit agreements are commercial contracts in which, typically, a customer pays a service provider for access to the Internet; these agreements are most prevalent at the edges of the Internet, where the topology consists primarily of singly connected “leaf” networks that are principally concerned with the delivery of their own traffic. Transit agreements have been widely studied and are not the subject of this report. Peering agreements – the value-creation engine of the Internet – are the carrier interconnection agreements that allow carriers to exchange traffic bound for one another’s customers; they are most common in the core of the Internet, where the topology consists of densely interconnected networks that are principally concerned with the carriage of traffic on behalf of the networks which are their customers. -

Facebook, Myspace, Skype, Twitter, WhatsApp und YouTube produzieren große Mengen an Daten - ideal für Analysen. Automatisierte Tools für die Diskursanalyse verarbeiten diese enormen Mengen an computervermittelten Diskursen schnell. Diese Dissertation beschreibt die Entwicklung und Struktur einer Software- Architektur für ein automatisiertes Tool, das computervermittelte Diskurse analysiert, um die Frage “Wer kommuniziert mit wem?” zu jedem Zeitpunkt zu beantworten. Die Zuweisung von Empfängern zu jeder einzelnen Nachricht ist ein wichtiger Schritt. Direkte Adressierung hilft, wird aber nicht in jeder Nachricht verwendet. Populäre Kommunikationsmodelle und die am weitesten verbreiteten CvK-Systeme werden untersucht. Das zugrunde liegende Kommunikationsmodell verdeutlicht die wesentlichen Elemente von CvK und zeigt, wie diese Kommunikation -

The main argument presented Accepted 19 August 2015 is that changes in market conditions and Internet traffic patterns over the past decade have Available online 28 August 2015 favored the search for new interconnection arrangements between actors located at the outer edges of the traditional Internet topology. Driven by the need to control operating Keywords: costs and optimize content delivery to end-users, network operators in Latin America Internet interconnection (and elsewhere in developing regions) are increasingly experimenting with cooperative Development Latin America peering arrangements to meet interconnection needs.

Introduction As a network of networks, the Internet critically depends on adequate arrangements for traffic exchange between the different participants in the Internet ecosystem. These interconnection contracts have changed significantly over the past decades, driven by changes in policy frameworks, in the scale of Internet traffic and its patterns, and in the goals and incentives of participating actors. -
