Workshop on Root Causes and Mitigation of Name Collisions (WPNC) – March 2014

In March 2014, a high-impact, two-day workshop was held in London on the causes and potential mitigations of domain name collisions.

Because the types and numbers of potential collisions are vast, but only a relatively small amount of rigorous investigation had ever been conducted, the event gathered investigators from multiple arenas to present their research and help advance the state of knowledge and practice around domain name collisions.

Below is a list of presentations and papers from the workshop.
