DITL: Collecting Global Empirical Data to Support Internet Research

Poster (konferens), 2010

This poster1 aims to promote the DITL project, which challenges the research community to develop the means to capture a complete Day In The Life of the Internet to gain a deeper understanding of Internet properties. Our tactical goal is to establish a tradition of periodic, synchronized measurements, and to provide supporting tools, analysis, visualization, and data indexes. Our strategic goal is to significantly increase the quantity, quality, and accessibility of empirical data supporting Internet research, helping to answer many open research questions regarding Internet workload, topology, routing, and performance.
