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

The case for separating routing from routers (2004, background): “Because they lack complete information about routing and traffic-engineering optimizations, these overlays sometimes increase congestion and decrease the effectiveness of traffic engineering in the underlay network [33], which can degrade user performance.”
P4p: provider portal for applications (2008, background): “Third, P2P’s dynamic traffic distribution patterns do not necessarily enjoy a synergistic coexistence with network traffic engineering [7, 12 ] ‐ network providers go to great lengths to estimate traffic matrices and determine routing based on them, but all of this effort could be negated if P2P ap”
MIRO: multi-path interdomain routing (2006, background): “Although source routing can generate good solutions in some cases [13], a large number of selfish sources selecting paths at the same time may lead to suboptimal outcomes, or even instability.”
Walking the tightrope: responsive yet stable traffic engineering (2005, methodology): “Recent studies show that overlay routing increases traffic v ariability making it much harder to estimate the TM needed for offline TE optimization [22, 29].”
