Call for participation: mPlane Industrial Workshop - Barcellona - April 22nd
by Marco Mellia 13 Mar '15

13 Mar '15

Dear all, This workshop may be of interest for someone in this community. Please, feel free to forward it to your colleagues. Notice that participation is free, and there is a discount in case you also want to attend the TMA workshop. Details below and at http://www.ict-mplane.eu/public/news/mplane-industrial-workshop-barcelona-a… <http://www.ict-mplane.eu/public/news/mplane-industrial-workshop-barcelona-a…> Ciao Marco ———— mPlane industrial workshop in Barcelona, April 22 2015 Call for Participation The research project mPlane (http://www.ict-mplane.eu <http://www.ict-mplane.eu/>), sponsored by the European Commission with the goal of measuring and troubleshooting Internet performance and availability by building an Intelligent Measurement Plane for Future Network and Application Management, organizes an industrial workshop to showcase the technology developed within the project, and to stimulate the discussion towards the creation of a common Monitoring Plane for the Internet. Nowadays, the technologies that are available when monitoring a network are very fragmented and no standard means is offered to access the data each probe can produce. mPlane architecture is addressing this problem by offering a simple and very practical way to i) ask probes to run experiments, ii) collect results in large repositories, and iii) running automatic algorithms to extract useful information from the available data. The mPlane architecture supports use cases that spans from SLA verification, to CDN monitoring, from mobile access network troubleshooting, to passive content curation. The workshop aims to stimulate discussion on the open problems and challenges in the network monitoring space and targets both academic researchers working in the area, and industrial partners (manufacturers, network providers, integrators). When: April 22, 2015 Where: Barcelona, UPC campus How much: Free More info: http://tma-2015.cba.upc.edu/mplane(link is external) <http://tma-2015.cba.upc.edu/mplane> The workshop, with invited speakers among industrial partners, will take place April 22, 2015, in the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain, and it is co-located with the 7th edition of the International Workshop of Traffic Monitoring and Analysis (TMA). This workshop brings together practical use cases relevant to operators and providers and discusses topics about proactive and reactive troubleshooting for network communications at a scale. Particular attention would be dedicated to discussing the definition of a measurement plane for the Internet, to shed light on the Internet quality. The keynote speakers will share with us their views about the challenges faced by the industry in the areas of network monitoring and measurements, and share their experiences in bringing to the market innovative solutions. Additionally, the workshop will host a showroom session, with the participation of several industries and startups. The workshop is provided free of charge. To register, please go to http://tma-2015.cba.upc.edu/mplane-registration(link is external) <http://tma-2015.cba.upc.edu/mplane-registration>, and make sure to use “bcn-mplane” as registration code. You can also register to both the mPlane workshop and TMA conference and get a discount of 30 EUR on the latter. Don’t miss the opportunity to participate! Register today!

[news] RIPE NCC Consultations Report 2015
by Serge Radovcic 18 Feb '15

18 Feb '15

Dear colleagues, >From November 2014 to January 2015, the RIPE NCC enlisted independent consultants to carry out interviews with RIPE NCC members and other interested parties in the RIPE community. The aim of these consultations was to check on our progress since the RIPE NCC Survey 2013 and to identify issues that our community would like us to address. The RIPE NCC Consultations Report 2015, which was prepared by the independent consultants, is available at: https://www.ripe.net/consultations-report-2015 34 people from 12 countries took part in the consultations, and we thank them for their participation. Interviews took place at the RIPE 69 Meeting in London, several interviews took place via web conference, and there were three physical meetings at locations in Europe. We thank the organisations that provided us with facilities for the physical meetings at no cost. We recognise the importance of having independent consultants carry out this work to ensure anonymity for participants' and to ensure that feedback is reported objectively. The consultations reinforce our commitment to constantly monitor the status and needs of our service region. We believe the input we receive is essential to improving our services for members and for the wider community. The RIPE NCC Executive Board will publish a response to the issues raised during the consultations. If you would like to share your opinion on the issues raised in the report, please respond to this mail or contact the Executive Board directly at <exec-board(a)ripe.net>. Kind regards, Serge Radovcic Chief Communications Officer RIPE NCC
