Saqib submitted a project in CERNET to monitor the performance of IPv6 network using PingERv6. He received the news that the project is accepted with 100K RMB. Now he has 2 accepted projects regarding PingER and total amount he has is near about 40K USD. Further, in his lab, three U1 servers have already arrived through another grant grant for research purpose. We can also use them for our PingER project.
Therefore, the CERNET has given Saqib a IPv6 based CentOS 6.8 machine in cloud. Now he is is trying to deploy the PingER server on the machine. Lets Let's see how it will work on IPv6 based network. This is a 2-year project.
Saqib has made contact with John Pickard author of "Quality of IPv6 Enablement of Universities: An International Study" who has provided a list of about 125 Universities in about 60 countries hosting IPv6 sites. However many are proxies. Les has suggested using perfSONAR (there are about 1000 and they all have lat longs in the sperfSONAR data baseperfSONAR database. Saqib is gathering the list, then we will see how many have IPv6 addresses.
The paper title: " Missing Values Imputation in PingER Internet End-to-end Performance Measurements using k-nearest neighbors (k NN)" was not accepted in IMC 2017. He is updating the paper according to the reviewer’s comments. Hopefully, Saqib will submit it at some other venue. Not yet decided about on the submission venue. Need some suggestions. Updated but not decided where to submit. Update 12/4/2017?
