بواسطة: France Université Numerique

Overview

Résumé en français

Ce cours en anglais est une introduction pratique aux mesures de l'internet (métrologie), basée sur des expérimentations réelles sur la plateforme PlanetLab Europe. Y sont abordés différents concepts tels que la topologie des réseaux et le routage, les pertes, la latence, la géolocalisation, la bande passante et les mesures de trafic.

Les vidéos de ce MOOC sont également sous-titrées en français

About This Course

This course is a hands-on introduction to internet measurements. You will learn about measuring the structure of the internet and the routes through that structure, about delays, losses and connectivity, about bandwidth, and about traffic.

You will see how to make these measurements, and you will understand what you can and cannot learn from them. We teach you how to run measurements from any computer. This course provides you with the ability to launch measurements on PlanetLab Europe, a platform consisting of internet connected servers at over 150 locations around the continent.

This course is structured in 5 weeks. Each week, around 6 course sequences will be available with video lectures, supplementary ressources, associated quiz and applicative exercises.
