[Server-devel] Thesis Topic Measuring Connectivity

[Marc E. Fiuczynski]

Hi Scott and Joshua,

Might want to look into using something like ScriptRoute  
(www.scriptroute.org).  The software has been operational on  
PlanetLab for a number of years to conduct various network  
measurement, connectivity, and monitoring experiments.  It would be  
great if something like ScriptRoute could run directly on the XS  
boxes at the various schools, and in countries where there are  
PlanetLab nodes you could then also do further experiments by  
communicating with those ScriptRoute servers.

Best regards,
Marc
