In the research and education community, the ability to monitor and meas=
ure the performance of physical networks and the applications and resources=
that utilize them is a critical component of successful operations. The Pe=
rformance Working Group will focus on the performance and measurement tools=
, applications, implementations, and infrastructure needed to support the p=
erformance and measurement needs of the R&E community.
1. Share and build the community's information base about performance an=
d measurement activities in the R&E community.
2. Discuss and, where possible/appropriate, document and develop "pretty=
good practices."
3. Identify use cases and user communities and seek to:
- share knowledge across user communities about measurement activities ga=
ined within user communities and
- leverage this information to contribute to the discovery and developmen=
t of better measurement tools, infrastructure and approaches.
4. This working group encourages participation and representation from R=
&E organizations of all sizes and capabilities and will work to leverag=
e community expertise:
- To provide feedback directly to the developers of the most widely used =
measurement and performance applications in the R&E community including=
NDT, OW=
AMP, BWCTL, the perfSONAR measurement framework, and the NP=
Toolkit. This feedback would be designed to aid developers with ideas f=
or enhancements, roadmaps, deployment and usability.
- To develop recommendations and approaches for measurement challenges th=
at impact the R&E community. Examples include, but are not limited to, =
resolving multi-domain performance issues and challenges associated with de=
ployment of large-scale measurement infrastructure.
- Its work is done in the context of the Internet2 advisory structure. Th=
is working group reports progress on a monthly basis to the Network Technic=
al Advisory Committee. Coordination with the perfSONAR developers group, an=
d the Information and Infrastructure working groups is essential.
- Outreach to, participation from and collaboration with application user=
communities such as the USLHCnet and organizations of all sizes, capabilit=
ies and interests from campuses to RONs is important.
- Attention is given to commercial product capabilities and deployments a=
s well as open-/community-source.
- Work represents the interests of the whole R&E community, not just =
one segment (e.g. research institutions).
- Substantial projects, such as new software development, are done as ind=
ependent projects, not as part of this WG.
- Consideration is given to business and policy issues as well as technic=
al development.
The Working Group will operate under the terms of the Internet2 Int=
ellectual Property Framework.
Logistics
The Working Group will:
- Meet via conference calls, and will interact via mailing list and colla=
boration space, and any other vehicles deemed useful and open.
- Operate under the guidance of a chair and vice-chair positions =
to be filled by members of the community. The term for the chair a=
nd vice-chair positions will be one year. Yearly assessments will be done t=
o determine whether changes in structure or scope are necessary, and to con=
firm the continued utility of the group.
