    ETOMIC advanced network monitoring system for future Internet experimentation
    (Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 2010) Csabai, István; Fekete, Attila; Hága, Péter; Hullár, Béla; Kurucz, Gábor; Laki, Sándor; Mátray, Péter; Stéger, József; Vattay, Gábor; Espina Antolín, Félix; García-Jiménez, Santiago; Izal Azcárate, Mikel; Magaña Lizarrondo, Eduardo; Morató Osés, Daniel; Aracil Rico, Javier; Gómez, Francisco; González, Iván; López Buedo, Sergio; Moreno, Víctor; Ramos, Javier; Automática y Computación; Automatika eta Konputazioa
    ETOMIC is a network traffic measurement platform with high precision GPS-synchronized monitoring nodes. The infrastructure is publicly available to the network research community, supporting advanced experimental techniques by providing high precision hardware equipments and a Central Management System. Researchers can deploy their own active measurement codes to perform experiments on the public Internet. Recently, the functionalities of the original system were significantly extended and new generation measurement nodes were deployed. The system now also includes well structured data repositories to archive and share raw and evaluated data. These features make ETOMIC as one of the experimental facilities that support the design, development and validation of novel experimental techniques for the future Internet. In this paper we focus on the improved capabilities of the management system, the recent extensions of the node architecture and the accompanying database solutions.

    NATRA: Network ACK-Based Traffic Reduction Algorithm
    (IEEE, 2020) García-Jiménez, Santiago; Magaña Lizarrondo, Eduardo; Aracil Rico, Javier; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren
    Traffic monitoring involves packet capturing and processing at a very high rate of packets per second. Typically, flow records are generated from the packet traffic, such as TCP flow records that feature the number of bytes and packets in each direction, flow duration, number of different ports, and other metrics. Delivering such flow records, about network traffic flowing at tens of Gbps is rather challenging in terms of processing power. To address this problem, traffic thinning can be applied to reduce the input load, by swiftly discarding useless packets at the sniffer NIC or driver level, which effectively reduces the load on software layers that handle traffic processing. This work proposes an algorithm that drops empty ACK packets from TCP traffic, thus achieving a significant reduction in the packets per second that must be handled by each traffic module. The tests discussed below show that the algorithm achieves a 25% decrease in the packets per second rate with minimal information loss.
