This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) will provide $525,000 over 3 years to Trustees of Boston University for research on the Domain Name System (DNS). The project will conduct large-scale analysis of DNS configurations and management practices to build fundamental knowledge about the DNS. It will leverage public datasets to statistically model DNS contents and use graph-based analysis to characterize registrar and domain operator activities. The research will develop tools for the community to support machine learning applications, anomaly detection, and synthetic workload generation for DNS research. The project has two complementary components: an empirical characterization of the DNS using graph theory, statistics, and machine learning; and an engineering component to identify operational practices, inform tool development, and generate new insights about practical DNS usage. The research aims to improve the robustness, manageability, and performance of the DNS, with potential societal benefits. The project will also create new educational materials and provide student mentorship.
