Synopsis

This book details the creation of a new system for measuring network performance. The author, an expert in the field, provides in-depth analysis of system design, implementation, and data analysis and reporting. This system represents a new approach to evaluating computer network services, focusing on service delivery to network customers, rather than the internal mechanics of network operation. It provides a quantitative basis for organizations to select and improve computer networks, ensuring service continues to be provided at an acceptable level. The system's data acquisition component captures all characters transmitted between a user and the computer network they are using, along with timestamps and the source of each character. Using a half-duplex model containing meaningful points of this mode, data is reduced to a standard format and indexed for easy retrieval. Statistical analysis of this data yields a variety of parameters characterizing the dialogue between network and user. This valuable resource provides organizations with the insights needed to maximize the performance of their networks.
