[AG-TECH] Help with multicast research project?

[michael j daw]

We are running a Grid project here at Manchester known as MUST - Multicast Streaming Technology over the Grid. One element of this project involves analysing multicast packet loss and related statistics during Access Grid sessions. To do this, we intend to use the logging capabilities of RAT. 

If you are willing, we need about 5 partners to take part in some experiments that involve running RAT from the command line with certain parameters that will make it log network statistics to a file, which you will then send to us. And that's it!

If you are willing to get involved in such experiments, then please contact Alex Yang at yangs at cs.man.ac.uk, who will then guide you in how to run RAT and what kind of sessions we wish to log. If you have any further questions, please also contact Alex directly.

Thanks in advance,
Mike
