In this paper, we present Bowlmap, a web-based visualization tool designed for network
monitoring and debugging. Bowlmap offers a highly-customizable representation of different
measurement traces in the same network map. An important feature of Bowlmap is that it
provides the user a convenient way to visualize both live and offline measurements and
combine results from different sources. In addition to its flexibility, Bowlmap is designed to
achieve low bandwidth usage, which allows faster visualization updates to the viewers. We …
In this paper, we present Bowlmap, a web-based visualization tool designed for network monitoring and debugging. Bowlmap offers a highly-customizable representation of different measurement traces in the same network map. An important feature of Bowlmap is that it provides the user a convenient way to visualize both live and offline measurements and combine results from different sources. In addition to its flexibility, Bowlmap is designed to achieve low bandwidth usage, which allows faster visualization updates to the viewers. We demonstrate Bowlmap's capabilities and performance through several case studies to show how Bowlmap facilitates network monitoring and debugging.
