Targeted Assistance and Instrumentation for Internet2 Applications

研究人员正致力于开发通用工具，以诊断高速研究网络上高级网络应用的端到端性能问题。这一工具的开发将以满足两个具有代表性的应用程序的需求为基础，一个具有批量吞吐量要求，另一个具有交互要求。研究人员利用现有的测量师基础设施，并将与NSF资助的其他项目(应用和测量)合作，与互联网2端到端绩效倡议密切协调，以确保结果在这笔赠款到期后继续用于解决高等教育面临的问题。

The researchers are working to develop general tools to diagnose end-to-endperformance problems of advanced network applications onhigh-speed research networks. This tool development will be groundedin addressing the needs of two representative applications,one with bulk throughput requirements and one with interactiverequirements. The researchers capitalize on the existing Surveyor infrastructure andwill work with other NSF-funded projects (both applications andmeasurement), coordinating closely with the Internet2 End-to-EndPerformance Initiative to ensure the results continue to beused past the expiration of this grant for problems facinghigher-education.
