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

Information leakage detection in distributed systems using software agents (2009, unknown): “Cabuk, et. al. have designed and studied network-based timing channels and mechanisms to disrupt such channels in [4].”
A survey of covert channels and countermeasures in computer network protocols (2007, methodology): “proposed a detection method for on/off packet timing channels [51].”
Whispers in the Hyper-space: High-speed Covert Channel Attacks in the Cloud (2012, background): “Cloud vendors and users have used a number of defense mechanisms to prevent data leakage, ranging from network isolation to data encryption.”
Packet Chasing: Spying on Network Packets over a Cache Side-Channel (2019, unknown): “In addition to the header field, packet rate and timing [13], [18], packet loss rate [14], and packet sorting [20] are also used to build covert channels.”
