the naming convention is ICFA-report-2014-dec11.docx where the date changes according to the drafft. If more than one draft per day then use  ICFA-report-2014-dec11-13.docx where 13 is the hour of the day.

The final version goes  in 

/afs/slac/www/xorg/icfa/icfa-net-paper-jan14/report-jan14.docx

It will be accessible from the web as http://www.slac.stanford.edu/xorg/icfa/icfa-net-paper-jan14/report-jan14.docx 

Where to find data/images etc.

   
Fig 1Locations of PingER Monitoring and Remote siteshttp://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/pinger/pingerworld/
Table 1PingER Monitored Countries and populationshttp://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/pinger/sites-per-country.html gives the number of countries monitored in a region.
Fig 3Number of sites monitored by SLACUse http://www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-wrap/pingtable.pl, see the # pairs in the Summary at the end. This time of year is a good time to ensure we have at least 2 working sites per country. To find sites use HostSearcher.pl. To update the meta database use NODEDETAILS.
Fig 4Packet loss by region by yearLook in /afs/slac/g/www/www-iepm/pinger/prmout/packet_loss-EDU.SLAC.STANFORD.N3-continent-allyearly.csv. You can also look in http://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/pinger/prmout/. The file is usually updated by prm.pl via trscrontab (see http://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/pinger/crontab-slaconly.txt) at the start of the year to get the previous year. You should run the script again (Note: You need to run it from pinger@pinger)
time /afs/slac.stanford.edu/package/pinger/prm/prm.pl -lp true -c /afs/slac.stanford.edu/package/pinger/prm/prm-allyearly-continent.conff

Once you have the csv file (see above) check the date with

then you can use Excel to produce the chart.

Fig 5Minimum RTTs measured from SLACGo to http://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/pinger/explorer.html, click on Motion Histogram. You will need to update the data to bring it up to date. See PingER Data Explorer document.

Fig 12Normalized throughputs to regions seen from CERNLook in  /afs/slac/g/www/www-iepm/pinger/prmout/nthroughput-CH.CERN.N20-continent-allyearly.csv. It is usually updated by prm.pl via trscrontab (see http://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/pinger/crontab-slaconly.txt) at the start of the year to get the previous year. You should run the script again
/afs/slac.stanford.edu/package/pinger/prm/prm.pl -lp true \
-c /afs/slac.stanford.edu/package/pinger/prm/prm-allyearly-continent-cern.conf

Once you have the csv file (see above) you can use Excel to produce the chart.

Table 3Derived throughputs in kbit/sGo to http://www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-wrap/table.pl. Select From TLD, To Continent, TCP Throughput (kbits/s) and the previous month. Click on submit. Wait (be patient takes a couple of minutes). Cut and paste the resultant table into Excel and then use Excel to re-arrange and re-format.
