DOE NGI Testbed Projects - Testbed projects of the Department of Energy Next Generation Internet program.
IRTF End-to-End Research Group - IRTF group that nominally is dedicated to End-to-end architecture principle, but historically covers a much broader set of topics, such as IP multicasting, VMTP, and congestion avoidance and control.
QBone News and Discussion Forum - The goal of Internet2 QBone initiative is to develop and deploy a scalable inter-domain QoS testbed based on IETF DiffServ.
QoS Enabled Audio Demo - The Internet2 QoS Enabled Audio Teleportation demonstration at SC2000 illustrated how the benefits of quality of service (QoS) could be applied to the real-time transmission of interactive CD-quality audio across the high-performance network path between Stanford University and the SC2000 show floor in Dallas.
Surveyor Reports - IPPM Surveyor is a project to measure unidirectional network characteristics between hundreds of sites with extreme precision. All resulting data is open: this is a gateway into plots obtained from Surveyor summaries.
