- Improve web page
Wiki Markup -Should the tables at NIIT web site be able to re-size themselves horizontally \[The images do not work right in this case\]: Faran-
- Visualization
Wiki Markup -Make tables sortable (working on 5/25/06, re-agreed 8/3/06, re-requested 8/21/06, done for the RTTs 8/22/06, can we do with buttons for all columns, agreed 2/27/07) \[Done 3/22/07\]: Faran-
- Provide documentation (in progress 2/27/07, documented maths of selection 3/20/07, needs updating, agreed to update 3/22/07): Farhan, Faran
- Can we add AS's to routes: Yee, Faran
- DiscoveryStatistics =>LandMark Analysis one gets SLAC with RTT 0.0 regardless (reported 3/20/07): Faran
Wiki Markup -If ping fails in Looking Glass Sites it shows as \-5.0 RTT, should show as NAN (agreed 3/5/07, re-reported 3/20/07) \[Done 3/22/07\]: Faran-
- When one double clicks on a row in Ping Results and the ping fails (e.g. host not responding) nothing shows in the pop-up window. I think some diagnostic or something should show (reported 3/20/07): Faran
- % complete location window needs information to say pings done but traceroutes still in progress (reported 3/20/07): Faran
- When locating www.niit.edu.pk one of the Ping Results has no Country/Astate and a Ping Site www.niit.edu.pk&contact=cottrell@slac.stanford.edu&id=TULIP (reported 3/26/07)Add diagnostic to Sites.txt to identify bad formatting: Faran
- When zooming maintain size of dots (should we use Google maps, keep as a wish list item 2/27/07): Faran
- Evaluate whether using traceroute data helps (Suggested by Umar & Les 2/26/07): Faran
- Landmarks
- Get more lanmarks for TULIP:
- China (sent email to ctsnet 7/26/06, reminded 12/6/06, 1/27/07): Les
- Try and get sites in Africa (Les sent email 11/28/06): Les
- COMTEC, Japan (Faran send email reminder 5/25/06, agreed to send another reminder 6/7/06, Umar will check with Farooq 11/16/06): Faran, Farooq
- Add traceroute/Looking Glass servers in critical areas, if they have a common format (asked for 11/15/06, Les did a manual look at traceroute.org and found about 20 potential landmarks 11/17/06, Faran not clear if one can automate 2/27/07, several are automateable, to prove it Les has added 8, Faran will work on): Faran
- Working on 2 sites in Palestine: Les
Wiki Markup -Resolve traceroute: icmp socket: Permission denied (reported 2/27/07) \[Fixed 3/10/07\]: Les-
- Gaza Strip host is down, reported 3/21/07: Les
Wiki Markup -Added Al Quds to landmarks \[Done 3/22/07\]: Les-
- Get site in Korea (made contact, test case works, suggest case study on S.E. Asia): Umar
- Add NetDiGi route servers (asked for 8/30/06, is able to parse them, will look at adding appropriate hosts 3/22/07): Faran
- Brunsvigia appears not to accept names, need to modify TULIP to call with addresses (requested fix 3/26/07): Faran
- Get more lanmarks for TULIP:
- Apply to PingER node database to check the lat/longs are roughly correct (tried with 300-400 sites but cannnot get results due to fragile Internet at NIIT, will interact with Akbar to make tests at SLAC 8/31/06, exchanged emails on list of PingER hosts to locate 9/3/06): Faran
- Analysis
- Literature search on triangulation, multi-lateration: Faran
Wiki Markup -Measure landmarks from landmarks \[Done 2/15/07\]: Faran-
- Optimize alpha by landmark (after have new location algorithm working, will try 1:2 for US, 1:3 for Europe, 2:15 Africa) : Faran
- Document Faran's algorithm, try new algorithm that does not require destination to be inside triangle: Faran, Umar
- Analyse the effect of passing IP addresses to landmarks rather than names: Faran
- Look at impact of increasing number of pings for getting accurate min_RTT: Faran
- Compare with GeoIP Tools
- For US compare Faran's algorithm with Octant (no longer available 2/27/07), GeoIP & simple triangulation for PingER hosts(in progress 2/1/07)
- Confidence estimates
- Applied to PingER hosts
- Outside triangles, area coverage
- Effect/need to vary alpha: Faran
- Look at big discrepancies
- Analysis of Accuracy and applicability
- Accuracy vs known locations (landmarks & PingER hosts): faran
- Effect of removing, adding landmarks, try for Bolivia: Faran
- Provide bubble maps of accuracy: Faran
- What area/population is covered by TULIP
- Document anomalies (e.g. root-servers): Faran
- Show accuracy by region and country: Faran
- Come up with a way to estimate the accuracy/confidence of estimates: Faran
- Document in the TULIP web page: Faran
- Find out more about GeoIP Tools
Wiki Markup -Faran make contact with GeoIP people \[Done 3/20/07\]: Faran-
Wiki Markup Find a case where TULIP beats GeoIP Tool \[Done 4.68.116.16\]:
