Scope of the Workshop

The ubiquity of Internet access, and the wide variety of Internet-enabled devices and applications, have made the Internet a principal pillar of the Information Society. Hoever, its distributed nature leads to operational brittleness and difficulty in identifying and tracking the root causes of performance and availability issues.  The EU-project mPlane aims at tackling those challenges.

This workshop, with invited speakers among industrial partners, aims to bring together practical use cases relevant to operators and providers and discuss 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 from a regulator perspective, to shed light on the Internet quality and guarantee net neutrality.

The workshop will take place on April 22, 2015.
