Abstract(in English) In this article, we review the recent progress of research and development activities on overlay networks, and discuss on future directions. First, we introduce a notion of overlay networks and describe why it becomes an hot issue in the field. For this purpose, the overlay network is compared with universal service within the network-layer and underlay networks to highlight its attractive features. Of course, the overlay network has several drawbacks, which is a next topic in this article. Then, we move to discussions on examples of overlay networks, including routing overlay networks, TCP proxy networks, grid networks, and P2P networks. Recently, P2P networks h.ave been paid much attention as a class of power law (scale-free) networks. We discuss how P2P networks can be designed based on its scale-free property. Also, cooperation methods of multiple overlay networks are discussed by using P2P networks. Finally, future directions of overlay networks are summarized.
