This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program provides $575,515 to Columbia University to develop an "intent-based internet ingress routing" system. The goal is to give network operators more control over how data reaches their networks, enabling improved reliability and performance of internet services. The project, which runs from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2029, brings together investigators from Columbia University, Northeastern University, and the Federal University of Minas Gerais in Brazil. The research will address key challenges such as allowing operators to easily express routing preferences, predicting the outcomes of routing configurations, and efficiently searching across multiple networks to satisfy routing intents. The resulting system is expected to help internet providers maintain service during natural disasters and block cyber attacks, enhancing the overall reliability of critical internet infrastructure.
