- Follow up
- Working with Bangladesh to set up a monitoring site at Jahangirnagar University Dhakar. Letter of invitation has been sent. Les will request an update from Bangladesh.
- Les is working Working with Adib to get monitoring host at UUM..
- Adib also interested in porting PingER to support IPv6.
- Anjum reported that SEECS started on this. They were thinking of using the IPv6 address, then using it to get the IPv4 address and rewriting the ping measurement with the IPv4 address, then everything in the analysis stays as it was. An alternative might be to get rid of the IP addresses altogether. Anjum will reach out to Adib.
- Hossein Javedani of UTM is interested in anomalous event detection with PingER data. Information on this is available at https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/IEPM/Event+Detection. We have sent him a couple of papers and how to access the PingER data. Hossein and Badrul have been put in contact.
- MD NOR RIDZUAN BIN DAUD of UM is interested in analytics with Big Data for PingER. Have pointed him to Renan's work. Renan has sent documentation and is in contact with Md.

Funding/Proposals
Johari reported that the FRGS proposal had been accepted. It is for 75K MRs (~$35K). It is for 5 people. It became available in June. Progress Johari. is looking for a student for his research grant.
Badrul has received the grant from his proposal. It amounts to 46K RM. It will pay travel for Johari and Adib plus a malaysian research assistant at UM.Badrul put together a proposal for an outreach program. It is similar to Johari's FRGS proposal. It will be used to expand the monitoring hosts. Badrul is looking is collaborating with UUM. Verbally they have approved the grant, He still waits for the offer letter from them. Any Update?
UNIMAS
Johari has another Raspberry Pie. He has installed the PingER monitoring. He is seeing the same traceroute behavior. He is looking for a DNS for the host. He is trying to create a custom built Ubuntu/PingER installation. Based on what he learnt from giving the tutorial on installing PingER he is improving the process. The idea is that if we could get a corporate sponsor then we could send preconfigured units to new monitoring sites to simplify things.
