Currently, my main interests are in understanding network dynamics from a global view, by characterising Performance of TCP, Quality of Service and Optimisation. I may focus on back to back tests and on host performances as well that may affect the rate of data transport.

Bellow you will find a list of projects and personal Free software I created. All the things provided on this pages are available under the Gnu GPL.

 

IPGraph IPGraph is GTK bandwidth monitor that displays your network interfaces usage.
NetPerf NetPerf are several scripts to determine the duration of test against throughput, affect of increasing socket buffer size, and system performance.
Optimizing transfers Contains information about Optimisation of transfers over high latency/bandwidth networks.
