Com4Innov Network Testing Platform

Participants : Emilio Mancini [correspondant] , Walid Dabbous.

Developed for the Com4Innov project, the platform integrates a set of tools in a virtual appliance, in order to conduct network experiments, store and share their results, and collect network diagnostic information. The platform’s core is developed as a Web Application in the Apache Tomcat application server. It has a web user interface, and a public API accessible to external tools. Its architecture is designed to be integrated with SQL or NoSQL databases, and with HTTP or REST client. The core platform is completed by measurement tools and mobile phone clients.

The implementation is available at the url: http://gforge.inria.fr/projects/com4innov . It is currently in advanced development stage.
