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

Video stream quality impacts viewer behavior: inferring causality using quasi-experimental designs (2012, background): “A major technological innovation of the past decade that allows content providers to deliver higher-quality video streams to a global audience of viewers is the content delivery network (or, CDN for short) [8, 17].”
Network Coordinates in the Wild (2007, background): “The performance of many Internet applications, such as distributed hash tables, web caches, and overlay networks , relies on accurate latency estimation between participants (e.g., [10] [27]).”
Computation Offloading Toward Edge Computing (2019, background): “who provides the service of CDN by deploying mDCs around the world [60].”
Peer-assisted content distribution in Akamai netsession (2013, methodology): “We begin by sketching the design space for content distribution systems, and discuss the potential risks and beneﬁts of hybrid designs.”
A Comprehensive Survey on Fog Computing: State-of-the-Art and Research Challenges (2017, background): “A CDN [48] consists of origin servers, surrogate servers (also known as replica servers), and a controller.”
The Akamai network: a platform for high-performance internet applications (2010, background): “Akamai first pioneered the concept of Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) [18] more than a decade ago to help businesses overcome these technical hurdles.”
