Abstract

Developments in communications have increased the volume of traffic travelling over different circuits, including copper, fibre and wireless. The anarchic architecture of the Internet means problems of overload and slowness are likely to remain. Remedies have been found, including server caching and Internet accelerators, but these address symptoms not causes. Much of the traffic is unnecessary given what we know of human information processing. An alternative is presented. This method uses locality as a factor in determining routing, making it more predictable, shorter and faster than existing mechanisms. To preserve privacy the method hides locality cues within random and/or non-location specific addresses. The underlying geographic cues can be utilised for genuine purposes, but are not freely available. By hiding locality cues within the information substructure it gives additional degrees of anonymity and security to users, helping with both privacy issues and security so improving opportunities for electronic interaction and commerce.
