Your software platform for making Internet measuremets easy.

Internet Analytics is an integrated environment that allows you to manage your Internet experiments from a single location. The extensibility feature makes it possible to add custom tools, suitable to your measurements needs.

Both integrated and custom tools benefit from a set common functions, such as database support to store your data, and distributes services like PlanetLab to run worlwide experiments.
Today, the Internet Service Provider (ISP) market is very competitive.

When ISPs compete for customers with the latest best offers, a questions that begs for answers is: how well is your ISP connected to your favorite web sites?

Help us find out, by joining our Mercury Internet measurement project and testing your Internet connection.

PlanetLab Manager

Have you ever run distributed Internet experiments using PlanetLab? Have you ever wondered how you can focus on your research questions, rather than how to connect and manage your PlanetLab nodes? The PlanetLab Manager is your answer.

The PlanetLab Manager is a software that simplifies the way you manage your distributed experiments using the PlanetLab platform.

It helps you visualize the distribution of your slices and nodes.

Configure Your Slice

The slice management interface enables you to choose the nodes for your slice, which are relevant for your experiment.

PlanetLab node selection is available by location, status or slice, simplifying the configuration of slices with many nodes.

Node status is displayed in real-time, informing you on which nodes are unavailable at the moment.

Connect to Nodes

Once you configured your slice, there is no need to switch to a different tool!

The integrated Secure Shell console enables you to immediately create an SSH connection to the nodes you have just configured.

Secure sessions to multiple nodes are maintained in parallel, making it easy to switch between different nodes, execute programs simultaneously, or compare data results.
