-Aubrey Barnard and Perry Kivolowitz+====== Multi-Interface Device Design ======
  
-Our aim is 1) to write an extensible framework ​for measuring network performance over multiple adapters ​and 2) to develop techniques to analyze the captured data to suggest changes to how the adapters ​are being used. +The wiki site for the work Aubrey Barnard ​and Perry Kivolowitz ​are doing with [[midd:​traffic_scheduling|scheduling traffic ​over multiple ​interfaces]] is now in its own area.

-===== Project Log ===== +
- +
-==== 03/03 ==== +
- +
-Meeting to address project feasibility,​ delegate tasks, discuss design. AB will work on mining metrics from literature. PK will work on developing client. To meet again on Thursday. +
- +
-==== 03/04 ==== +
- +
-AB - Learned about TCP so I can figure out some ways to measure it. +
- +
-PK - Got enumeration of adapters running along with capture on selected adapters. Simple GUI to enable / disable adapter capture. +
- +
- +
-==== 03/05 ==== +
- +
-Met briefly - discussed evolving approach. Will meet again on 03/06. +
- +
-PK - Learned how to create dynamically loaded plug-in interface so that metrics / tests can be self-standing modules. +
- +
-==== 03/06 ==== +
- +
-Met briefly - discussed metrics as known so far. Will meet again Monday. +
- +
-PK - Wrote a DNSQuery plug-in using low level socket programming so that the query can be sent over non-default ​interfaces. Plug-in works over default interface (confirmed with WireShark) - have to add another NIC to my computer to test the non-default case +
- +
-==== 03/07 ==== +
- +
-PK - Added second adapter to desktop. Confirmed plugins are working over alternate adapters. Wrote PING plugin using low level socket interface. This is working nicely. Started traffic driver UI. +
- +
-==== 03/08 ==== +
- +
-AB - Considered reorganizing web pages. Learned to upload files, but held uploading proposal until after reorg. due to possible linking/​versioning problems. Researched network metrics from Google search results. Started finding papers from Sigmetrics and related conferences (IMC, MobiCom). +
- +
-Notes: +
-  * Measure bit error rates (physical and link layers should be able to report) +
-  * Get capacity of links +
-  * Measure achievable bandwidth by saturation+
