Access bandwidth measurement is crucial to emerging Internet applications for network-
aware content delivery. However, today's bandwidth testing services (BTSes) are slow and …

Running network performance experiments on real systems is essential for a complete
understanding of protocols and systems connected to the internet. However, the process of …

We present an original end-to-end available bandwidth measurement method, called
SMART (statistics measurement for avail-bw by random train). It resolves some of the …

The need to identify correlated traffic bursts at various, and especially fine-grain, time scales
has become pressing in modern data centers. The combination of Gigabit link speeds and …

Consumers, regulators, and ISPs all use client-based" speed tests" to measure network
performance, both in single-user settings and in aggregate. Two prevalent speed tests …

Network load tester is important to daily network operation. Motivated by our experience with
a major cloud provider, a practical load tester should satisfy two important requirements:(R1) …

The Internet is changing rapidly. One of the consequences of this change is a growing need
for higher quality of service. A corollary of the need for higher quality of service is the need …

Many paths in PlanetLab cannot be measured by Pathload. One of the main reasons for this
is timing irregularities caused by interrupt moderation of network hardware, which delays …

Examining the validity or accuracy of proposed available bandwidth estimation tools
remains a challenging problem. A common approach consists of evaluating a newly …
