A Method for Locating Servers on a Network with High Connectivity and Efficiency

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) It is important for a contents delivery service in the Internet to ensure the comfortable accessibility of all users to the servers. For that purpose, a method is often used, which locates some mirror servers providing the same contents on a network and navigates an access by a user to one of the mirror servers. We can expect that the method brings the reduction of the delay time of an access, the load balance among the servers, and the high reliability against a failure of a network and a server. As the location of the servers on a network influences the performance of this method, the design of the location of the servers is very important.

In this paper, we deal with the server location problem, which determines the location of the servers satisfying the following two constraints: the reachability to at least one server is guaranteed even if a link fails, and the maximum of the sum of the distances to the servers is restricted. We propose two heuristic algorithms for the problem and evaluate the algorithms by applying to some real networks. The results show that the performance of the algorithms is good.
