Badrul plans for his undergraduate student (Abdulrahim Haroun Ali) to have a draft paper on anomalies in PingER measurements to share for review by the end of semester (January). Update?
Ridzuan just solved the first part of the installation (Ubuntu servers) and is now starting to configure Apache Hadoop nodes for Pinger data storage. is still in the configuration process for communication between the Hadoop nodes. Need some troubleshooting at the moment.
Ibrahim Abaker is planning to work on topic initially entitled " leveraging pingER big data with a modified pingtable for event-correlation and clustering", The purpose of this project is to make Pinger more efficient and more scalable to retrieve and analysis pingER raw data. Consequently it may improve pinger data store. He is planning to use key-value store model with high expandability and shorter query response time. The benefit of such project will help in the design of real time analysis and distributed pinger data across multiple servers for analysis. Les has sent him a pointer to documentation on the data flow at SLAC and also listings of pingtable.pl and associated script. He is currently writing a proposal, which will contain a problem statement, objectives, scope and the approach to tackle the problem. He asked: how much PingER data is captured and stored so far (~ 1TByte)? Is there a published paper (see http://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/paperwork/ieee/ieee.pdf)?

At the Connect Asia Pacific Summit in Bangkok 2 weeks ago and seeing the project "Mapping the pan Asia Pacific information Superhighway and closing gaps in infrastructure connectivity" Shahryar found that very much related to the work in the PingER project. So Shahryar sent email to a UN agency for a possible collaboration with them on PingER project. He has heard nothing so he will write a detailed proposal and then should contact them again. No update 2/5/2014.
Hassan Hassaan reports that they have established contact with people in Bahawalpur. The contact person forwarded the request to higher authorities for approval of PingER deployment.

Kashif reports (2/19/2014): "We are in a process of shifting us along with equipment to another lab from a week. Due to this transition process and new installations, Joun could not contact further to the contact persons about the down PingER Nodes. This shifting process will complete on coming Friday and after that i will be able to update you about the task on NUST part."
