Extractions: Geometric Topology This area of mathematics is about the assignment of geometric structures to topological spaces, so that they "look like" geometric spaces. For instance, compact two dimensional surfaces can have a local geometry based on the sphere (the sphere itself, and the projective plane), based on the Euclidean plane (the torus and the Klein bottle), or based on the hyperbolic plane (all other surfaces). Similar questions in three dimensions have more complicated answers; Thurston showed that there are eight possible geometries, and conjectured that all 3-manifolds can be split into pieces having these geometries. Computer solution of these questions by programs like SnapPea has proved very useful in the study of knot theory and other topological problems. Acme Klein Bottle .

Apart from well-known commercial products (Mathematica, Maple,), there exists a great variety of systems developed in the academic context, without many connections with the current trends in Software Engineering. Our previous experience has been focused on the design, specification and construction of symbolic computation systems for Algebraic Topology. In particular, our main research area has been the formal analysis of one of these tools, namely, the EAT system. At this moment, we are involved in a more holistic approach, one that deals with software verification, conceptual modelling and Internet-based services; that is, to devise algebraic manipulation systems in the Software Engineering framework. Our objective is then to make progress towards a methodology for the analysis, specification, development, verification and maintenance of symbolic computation systems.

http://mathforum.org/isaac/problems/bridges1.html

Extractions: Prime Numbers ... Links Topology is one of the newest branches of mathematics. A simple way to describe topology is as a 'rubber sheet geometry' - topologists study those properties of shapes that remain the same when the shapes are stretched or compressed. The 'Euler number' of a 'network' like the ones presented later in this discussion is an example of a property that does not change when the network is stretched or compressed. The foundations of topology are often not part of high school math curricula, and thus for many it sounds strange and intimidating. However, there are some readily graspable ideas at the base of topology that are interesting, fun, and highly applicable to all sorts of situations. One of these areas is the topology of networks, first developed by Leonard Euler in 1735. His work in this field was inspired by the following problem: The Seven Bridges of Konigsberg In Konigsberg, Germany, a river ran through the city such that in its center was an island, and after passing the island, the river broke into two parts. Seven bridges were built so that the people of the city could get from one part to another. A crude map of the center of Konigsberg might look like this:

http://www.caida.org/analysis/topology/as_core_network/

Extractions: When the Internet was in its infancy, monitoring traffic was relatively simple. However, after experiencing phenomonal growth in the 1990's, tracking connectivity has become a daunting task. Recently, CAIDA researchers have attempted to strip away lesser connected autonomous systems (or `ASes') in order to find out how Internet connectivity is distributed among ISPs. About current AS Internet graph Available posters Previous versions We describe a visualization that shows a macroscopic snapshot of the Internet core taken from data collected during a two week period from April 1-16, 2002. The graph reflects 1,224,733 IP addresses and 2,093,194 IP links, (immediately adjacent addresses in a traceroute-like path) of skitter data from 21 monitors probing approximately 932,000 destinations spread across over 75,000 (70%) of globally routable network prefixes. We then aggregate this view of the network into a topology of Autonomous Systems (ASes), each of which approximately maps to an Internet Service Provider (ISP) (Some ISPs administer more than one AS but it is not typical). We map each IP address to the AS responsible for routing it, i.e., the origin (end-of-path) AS for the best match IP prefix of this address in Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing tables collected by the University of Oregon's RouteViews project (http://www.antc.uoregon.edu/route-views/)

http://www.c3.lanl.gov/mega-math/gloss/topo/topo.html

Extractions: Topology is the mathematical study of surfaces . Sometimes it is called ``rubber sheet geometry" because topologists consider geometric figures as though they were drawn on infinitely stretchable rubber sheets. In two dimensions, topologists imagine figures that can be stretched and pulled as though they were drawn on an infinitely thin, infinitely stretchable material that can be deformed in any way (not including tearing, perforating, or gluing). Some properties that are important in Euclidean geometry such as distance, measurement of angles, or straightness are don't hold. Other properties, such as whether lines intersect or whether figures are closed (like the letter "O" ) or open (like the letter "U") remain important. In two dimensions, a triangle, a square, and a circle are all topologiclaly equivalent. So are the upper case letters "T", "F" and "E". In 3 dimensions, the surface of a cube, a pyramid, and a sphere are topologically equivalent. A stretchable "skin" that covers any one of them can be restretched to cover any of the others. The surface of a donut and a coffee cup are topologically equivalent each is a three-dimensional object with a hole in it. This is an unusual (but valid) way to think about the world.

Visualizing The Global Topology Of The MBone

Extractions: Tamara Munzner and Eric Hoffman and K. Claffy and Bill Fenner Proceedings of the 1996 IEEE Symposium on Information Visualization , pp. 85-92, October 28-29 1996, San Francisco, CA, 1996. We present a case study of visualizing the global topology of the Internet MBone. The MBone is the Internet's multicast backbone. Multicast is the most efficient way of distributing data from one sender to multiple receivers with minimal packet duplication. Developed and initially deployed by researchers within the Internet community, the MBone has been extremely popular for efficient transmission across the Internet of real-time video and audio streams such as conferences, meetings, congressional sessions, and NASA shuttle launches. The MBone, like the Internet itself, grew exponentially with no central authority. The resulting suboptimal topology is of growing concern to network providers and the multicast research community. We create a geographic representation of the tunnel structure as arcs on a globe by resolving the latitude and longitude of MBone routers. The interactive 3D maps permit an immediate understanding of the global structure unavailable from the data in its original form as lines of text with only hostnames and IP addresses. Data visualization techniques such as grouping and thresholding allow further analysis of specific aspects of the MBone topology. We distribute the interactive 3D maps through the World-Wide Web using the VRML file format, thus allowing network maintainers throughout the world to analyze the structure more effectively than would be possible with still pictures or pre-made videos.
