Complexity is a widely used parameter in network design, yet there is
no generally accepted definition of the term. Complexity metrics
exist in a wide range of research papers, but most of these address
only a particular aspect of a network, for example, the complexity of
a graph or software. While it may be impossible to define a metric
for overall network complexity, there is a desire to better
understand the complexity of a network as a whole, as deployed today
to provide Internet services. This document provides a framework to
guide research on the topic of network complexity as well as some
practical examples for trade-offs in networking.
This document summarizes the work of the IRTF's Network Complexity
Research Group (NCRG) at the time of its closure. It does not
present final results, but a snapshot of an ongoing activity, as a
basis for future work.
