PlanetLab is many things, but stable is not the adjective I would
use... These are generally servers run on a volunteer basis by
graduate students in various university labs; they routinely get
disconnected, crash or get overloaded with other experiments.
Relative to consumer nodes, they do tend to have public IP addresses.
It would be good to gather some statistics on the dynamics of
PlanetLab nodes.
Marcin, could you provide some more details about your mobile nodes
joining a 600-peers overlay on PlanetLab? As far as I know, PlanetLab
is a federated testbed made of very stable public servers; how did you
manage to make mobile devices part of it? Or were the mobile nodes
participating only as clients, through a XML-RPC-like interface?
