The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Network Coordinates in the Wild (2007, methodology): “PIC [7] does not use explicit landmarks, incorporating measurements to any node using a simplex optimization algorithm to obtain an up-to-date coordinate.”
Should internet service providers fear peer-assisted content distribution? (2005, background): “[5][19][20]) and studied the potential benefits of locality in P2P filesharing systems such as KaZaa and Gnutella [8][24].”
Vivaldi: a decentralized network coordinate system (2004, methodology): “This result agrees with the results presented in Section 5 6.2 Decentralized Internet coordinate systems PIC [3], like Vivaldi, can use any node that knows its coordinates as a landmark for future nodes: PIC does not require explicitly designated landmarks.”
On the Embeddability of Random Walk Distances (2013, methodology): “used to approximate delays between machines on a network, in the form of network coordinate systems [31, 28, 10, 27].”
