  Internet topology analysis has recently experienced a surge of interest in
computer science, physics, and the mathematical sciences. However, researchers
from these different disciplines tend to approach the same problem from
different angles. As a result, the field of Internet topology analysis and
modeling must untangle sets of inconsistent findings, conflicting claims, and
contradicting statements.
  On May 10-12, 2006, CAIDA hosted the Workshop on Internet topology (WIT). By
bringing together a group of researchers spanning the areas of computer
science, physics, and the mathematical sciences, the workshop aimed to improve
communication across these scientific disciplines, enable interdisciplinary
crossfertilization, identify commonalities in the different approaches, promote
synergy where it exists, and utilize the richness that results from exploring
similar problems from multiple perspectives.
  This report describes the findings of the workshop, outlines a set of
relevant open research problems identified by participants, and concludes with
recommendations that can benefit all scientific communities interested in
Internet topology research.
