- NETAPPS2015 1-3 December 2015 was very successful, five papers were presented in the PingER session
- Saqib is continues working on the Malaysian case study and will submit
- Les mentioned that Adib is looking at a Case study of ASEAN countries (see below)
9 students from Amity University near New Delhi in India interested in coming to SLAC.
They have gone through the installation instructions for traceroute.pl, ping_data.pl and pinger2.pl. pinger2.pl. Problem that their web server appears to be local, see Setting up PingER servers at Amity. No progress 3/9/2016
- Joao Brazillian student: All is set for mid May thru end Aug 2016

- slac-pinger/pinger created by topherwhite. PingER project https://github.com/slac-pinger/pinger
- Now we have it we can share with Amity to check it works.
- Bebo reports that someone from Amity requested to be a member of the Android group.

From Adib:
"Since we're still waiting on an account, at SLAC, I asked the student to explore another idea (which is quite relevant) proposed by Prof. Bebo “Creative visualization of PingER data, including rich interaction;”. He has already started looking at the possible attractive/interactive design, at the same time he is working to improve his programming skills."
"On the other hand, I am in the final stage of writing a case study on the Internet performance in ASEAN countries and its implication on the Socio-Economic Indexes. Will try to share with Dr.Les and Prof. Bebo soon to comment and get your advice on the publication possibility of the paper."

One way of drilling down is via a map of all sites. Faisal Zahid put something together a couple of years ago. It is at http://www.slac.stanford.edu/comp/net/wan-mon/viper/pinger-coverage-gmap.html. It uses Google maps, allows pan and zoom, plus selection of type (measurement agent, beacon, target) of host to display. It also allows one to select a host (Search location), mouse click on the balloon to find out more about the host, from there click on the sites web site, click on the country or region to get the relevant pingtable.pl information. The Visualize allows one to choose a measurement agent and a country and it draws coloured lines between the sites to represent the metric choose.
This was very useful but parts of it are broken. It would be great to fix or replace. It has some documentation.
For plotting time series, Grafana looks very promising
Updating the motion charts, adding newer data etc. would be most useful. See http://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/pinger/pinger-metrics-motion-chart.html and http://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/pinger/explorer.html
Enhance the selection Metrics, Ticks (see pingtable.pl) to allow multiple metrics (min, avg, max RTT, loss, thrpughput, , MOS ..) to be plotted as a time series.
Enhanced selection remote hosts for selected tick, selected metric selected mutiple targets (pingtable.pl currently only allows one target), e.g.
Once you have plot enable fitting the data to timelines (linear, exponential, power series)
Map pf countries the world colored by metric allow selection of metric and for a particular year. with chosen MA, e.g.
Name: Sara Masood
Title: PingER Internet Performance Monitoring Agent On Android Device
Status: There has been a discussion to pin down more closely what is needed, i.e. a PingER Measurement Agent running on an Android making measuremenst measurements to the Beacons, and the ability to upload the data nightly. We held a skype group meeting with Topher, Sara, Saqib, Bebo and Les to move forward. See 20160331 Meeting on PingER/Android, also see Discussion on porting PingER to Android. She has what she needs for now.
Name: Saba Muzamil
Title: She is interested to work on Environment that supports the execution of analytical distributed queries in Hadoop Cluster.
