“…While several studies have researched or developed measurement infrastructures, e.g., [1], [3], [4], our approach is guided by the observation that the utility of a measurement service is significantly increased by the extensibility of the queries it can answer, as well as its graceful handling of heavy measurement request load.…”

Abstract-Network monitoring capabilities are critical for both network operators and networked applications. In the context of an experimental test facility, network measurement is important for researchers experimenting with new network architectures and applications, as well as operators of the test facility itself. The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) is a sophisticated test facility comprised of multiple "control frameworks." In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of S 3 Monitor, a scalable and extensible monitoring service for GENI. A key feature of S 3 Monitor is a flexible design that allows easy "plug in" of new network measurement tools. We discuss our deployment experiences with S 3 Monitor on GENI, and give experimental results to quantify the performance and system footprint of S 3 Monitor. We find that the S 3 Monitor service is light-weight and scales well as the number of paths to be monitored increases.

“…The algorithm takes three parameters as input. The first, G, is an unweighted, undirected 5 graph representing measurement hosts and requested measurements, as described in Section 3. The second and third parameters, f and s, are integer arguments representing parameters for the heuristic itself.…”

“…Examples of network measurement services include ScriptRoute [2], the Scalable Sensing Service (S 3 ) [3], iPlane [4], and the system by Calyam et al [5]. Because a measurement service has knowledge of a larger number of network measurements than individual applications, it is in a position to determine when inference can be used to reduce the total number of measurements required to satisfy a particular demand from applications.…”
