John Robinson, Communications Research Centre

Dr. John Robinson has been involved with the Internet since the first connection was made to Canada in the early 1980s. He re-joined the Communications Research Centre in Ottawa in 1995 after a decade in Europe, where he worked in Holland at a high-tech think-tank conducting research, design and prototyping of computer networks for NATO \"Command and Control.\" Currently he is the Head of Distributed Systems Research at the CRC, where his research interests include performance analysis and quality-of-service issues with next generation Internet technologies.
John Stewart, Communications Research Centre.
Abstract: The Communications Research Centre (CRC) has been participating, since 1995, in MBone R&D projects with a consortium of European research organisations and industries under the European Union Framework 4 Telematics Programme. A CRC objective has been to make the MBone videoconferencing technology usable for non-experts.



Not enough attention has been paid to the monitoring and diagnostic tools that are needed to manage the emerging real-time multicast network infrastructure. With the interests and needs of the non-expert end-user in mind, we have been looking at the existing MBone monitoring tools and have designed new tools to be added to the existing suite. Tools for IP multicast monitoring (MReceipt; MultiMON) and for QoS performance diagnostics (MERCInari) have been designed and prototypes have been implemented and tested on the MBone with the support of our research partners. This presentation will present some of the ideas and observations arising from our research, and describe and demonstrate the prototype tools that have been developed.
