Scaling dv to a million is something of a challenge. I would dearly like someone to work with on attempting to implement new metrics in babel. Juliusz has described multiple possibilities that seemed promising that neither he nor I have had time to work on in isolation. Also fred baker has outlined some interesting ideas for SRC/DST routing and address assignment that were just demoed in the ietf homenet's ospf implementation last week. I think many of the same ideas and tlvs can be carried over into babel. Now that I am wrapping up the bufferbloat work (see cablemodem results at: http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/86/slides/slides-86-iccrg-3.pdf ) I can also conceive possibilities for wifi congestion and link quality aware metrics that haven't been tried before... I hinted at some of them at the MIT talk, "what's wrong with wireless" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wksh2DPHCDI&feature=youtu.be > > >> >> -- Juliusz >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Babel-users mailing list >> Babel-users@lists.alioth.debian.org >> http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/babel-users >> > > _______________________________________________ > Babel-users mailing list > Babel-users@lists.alioth.debian.org > http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/babel-users -- Dave Täht Fixing bufferbloat with cerowrt: http://www.teklibre.com/cerowrt/subscribe.html _______________________________________________ Babel-users mailing list Babel-users@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/babel-users
