Analysis Time Delay of a Next Generation Name Resolution System

Name resolution system is playing an important role in Internet. Owning to original design ill-considerately, DNS has some fate shortcoming. So some researchers propose using flat name resolution to replace it. Until now there are many researches on this function, but few studies on performance. We just do some performance analysis to give a deeper insight into this system. In this paper, we model the time delay in one search in the flat name resolution and it can be divided into three parts: hop time delay, transmission time delay and search time delay. Then we use simulation to give a deep insight and find that hop time delay is the biggest one, the other two can be neglected, for they are too small. But they can infect the nodes capacity, future the network scale.
