Estimating Diffusion Path of Information using Overlay Network

提出了一种估计Internet上信息扩散路径的方法。该方法包括流标识符提取模块和识别模块。作为流标识符，提出了8比特流有效载荷码和发送消息的时间间隔。利用这些标识符，在保持隐私的情况下，开发了一种检测网络中观察到的流的身份的算法。

An estimation method of diffusion path of information on the Internet has been developed. The method consists of extracting module of a flow identifier and identifying module. As flow identifier, 8 bit code of flow payloads and time interval for transmitting messages are proposed. Using these identifiers, an algorithm to detect identity of flows observed in network is developed keeping to privacy.
