In this paper we apply data mining analysis to study the topology of the Internet thus creating a new processing framework To the best of our knowledge this is one of the rst studies that focus on the Internet topology at the router level i e each node is a router The size K nodes and the nature of the graph are such that new analysis methods have to be employed First we suggest computationally expensive metrics to characterize topological properties Then we present an e cient approximation algorithm that makes the calculation of these metrics possible Finally we demonstrate the initial results of our framework For example we show that we can identify central routers and poorly connected or even isolated nodes We also nd that the Internet is surprisingly resilient to random link and router failures having only small changes in the connectivity for fewer than failures Our framework seems a promising step towards understanding and characterizing the Internet topology and possible other real communication graphs such as web graphs
