As increasingly diverse networks are interconnected, the combinations of environments and applications that will coexist will make custom engineering increasingly impractical. We investigate an approach which focuses on replacing custom engineering with automated optimization of protocol specifications. Interestingly, our optimizations, grounded in recursive query optimization, map smoothly to prototypical networking design points of rendezvous selection and proxy placement. Under two distinct networking settings, our prototype system can automatically choose program executions that are as much as three, and usually one order of magnitude better than original source programs.
