Renan has provided a 4 page Appendix on PingERLOD to the ICFA report. This is also available at PingER LOD Overview
Any pro
Renan's thesis has around 130 pages. However, almost half of it is about generic stuff about Semantic Web. The other half is specific about PingER LOD project. The Semantic Web generic stuff part should be translated because it is good material for those who want to study and understand more about it. The PingER LOD part should be translated for further documentation about the project we developed at SLAC. Things Renan needs to do:
- Start translating his thesis, specifically the PingER LOD part (around 50 pages), which is more interesting to us.
- Test (free) alternatives for the RDF Repository, he has already started this with Virtuoso. He just needs more time to test it more and have more solid results.Paper about Big Data and Social Computing for the conference that will be held at Stanford: He is pretty sure he can argue that we have made nice contributions for social computing using (big) data handling technologies. he will discuss with his professor at Rio so she can help him with advice. The deadline for the proposal (3 pages, easy) is Jan 15.
Any help from a developer who would be able to engage him/herself to invest some time on the project would be very much appreciated.

UM appears to be experiencing very high packet losses (>4%). We need help in understanding these. It does not look like simple congestion since the jitter and RTT is staying low. Saqib needs assistance from Badrul as part of his case study of Malaysia. Badrul writes: "UM is now currently changing the new policy regarding the bandwidth and connection. They are upgrading the switch and router to a new router - mostly every weekend they shut down the network. therefore we are now having some difficulty." Saqib has identified what appear to be losses starting at a JARING router in KL. It would be good if Badrul could run mtrt mtr from UM to UTM.
UNIMAS
The IPDV jitter looks high for UNIMAS seen from SLAC in Nov & Dec. Saqib needs help from Johari to try and understand this. Could it be due to students?

The tool to enable synchronizing Malaysian monitors is completed. It provides the ability to add, edit and delete nodes. However there are still some errors (wild cards) in the pinger.xml file produced. Johari is working on it. Johari has sent less the URLs to try out. Les has not had much time so far only looked at add form made some suggestions, and edit form - looks good. I imagine Johari wants me to actually make a change
The traceroute server at http://pinger2.unimas.my/cgi-bin/traceroute.pl has the same problem as before. They know (sort of) the problem but haven't got the chance to rectify it (mapping NAT address, needs to be added). There is no progress 12/4/2013, 1/8/2013.

Johari has a research student who finalized a proposal in order to officially apply for his masters. He will start in February. He is currently working on threshold/anomaly detection, and will extend to correlating performance over multiple routes.
