Saqib also reported that there was also a cable cut between Singapore and Europe on October 4, 2016 in SEA-ME-WE 4. Thus affecting the internet speed in south Asia and south-east Asia. Maybe worth looking at the impact (if any).
UUM
From Adib:
Adib has written a very nice paper on a case study of ASEAN countries Internet connectivity seen from SLAC and relating that to various socio-economic indices. Is there an update 12/4/2016
We are working with SLAC the DoE etc. to get an invite to Adib to visit SLAC.
Adib asked a student (Jaafrau) to explore “Creative visualization of PingER data, including rich interaction;”. He has come up with a good design, yet the development part needs a lot of work. Adib will ask him to upload his interface and share the link. No update 8/24/2016 is there an update?
Adib has another student starting in September. Adib will look at directing him to PingER. Any update?
Adib had a meeting with Mr. Chaisit Choosong <chaisitc@gmail.com>, from Rajamangala University of Technology Srivijaya last week. Adib gave him a brief about PingER project, aim, objectives, and its installation requirements. He is interested to setup a PingER monitoring node at his site. Adib sent another email to introduce Chaisit to Dr. Les and hopefully, Les has followed up with an email on 8/21/2016 with an invitation and information on how to set up the monitor. Adib will follow up. We at SLAC have not heard anything 10/26/2016, Sent an email 12/4/2016, 12/7/2016.
