"CATV as a potential enabler for the next generation Internet"

Paul Mockapetris
@Home Inc.

@Home is an Internet Service Provider (ISP) that is using data-over-cable (CATV) technology to reach the million homes in the U.S. that are passed by cable. This approach promises new levels of performance and ubiquity, yet has numerous practical challenges.

This talk introduces the basic environment of cable systems and the technical challenges of making them a substantial part of the internet infrastructure.
