Funded Activity Summary

Enabling Reliable, Efficient, and Secure Networks: Next Generation Measurement for the Internet. Like the electricity network, the Internet is a core infrastructure connecting society, and so must be reliable, efficient, and secure. A gap in bandwidth supply is like a blackout in terms of lost business, productivity and essential data. Inefficiency increases costs as more equipment is needed for the same service, and poor security threatens both the economic and personal spheres, limiting freedom and adding cost. A raw material of network health and security is network measurements showing what is going on. However, current methods cannot cope with the size and speed of today's Internet. This project will provide the measurement breakthroughs necessary to ensure that networks are reliable, secure, and fairly priced.
