The design of Internet Tomography Measurement Systems (ITMS) aimed at mapping the Internet performance profile spatially and temporally over paths between probing stations is a particular focus. The Internet Tomography Measurement System design criteria addressed include: Minimally-invasive, independent and autonomous, active or passive measurement; Flexibili UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=849502 ER -
