PS - two updates to that note below:

1) a more recent version is appearing in IEEE Communications in July 2009

2) both versions still have a few bugs

a) PlanetLab is not an overlay (there are no virtual links, interfaces,
or addresses) (it should not appear in Table 1 either)

b) Table 1 incorrectly lists X-Bone as application-layer, whereas it is
network layer.

c) the appropriate reference for the X-Bone should have been:
Dynamic Internet Overlay Deployment and Management Using the X-Bone. Joe
Touch. Computer Networks, July 2001, pp. 117-135
