Abstract
Network neutrality is the principle according to
which a network should process all traffic equally without
differentiation. However, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), today,
are not transparent with their traffic management policies,
which puts them under the suspicion of violating the neutrality
principle. Because of this, we need efficient and practical methods
to monitor such violations. In this report, we present three
prevalent works related to the inference of network neutrality.
