The typical network architecture problem, what are the best (shortest latency, greatest bandwidth, etc) locations to connect to the every nation in the world? As you increase the number of locations, how do the choices change?
If you only had small (2 3 5 7 11) number of locations, where would they be?
And what data do you have to prove the choices are best?
Just a quick wikipedia and google search would provide you the answers to that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_number_of_Internet_users http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Internet_exchange_points_by_size http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats.htm http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats1.htm http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats4.htm etc... have fun with all that data!
