Abstract

In this paper, we present a social network based network communication architecture, Davis Social Links (DSL). DSL uses the trust and relationships inherent to human social networks to provide an enhanced communication architecture for future Internet designs. We begin with a conceptual discussion of how future network architectures can leverage social networks. Next, we describe the DSL architecture and how it provides to end-users control over the irreachability within the network. We conclude with a discussion of the capability to manage dynamic communities within DSL.
