I’m changing my approach from using tools like Iperf and ping to collect network data and then using my java program to analyses the output to writing the scripts for myself and working from the ground up.

It is new territory for me so it really exciting but also a bit daunting. Along side this new work, I now have just 7 days left to prepare for the Google Android Development Camp in London. The next week is looking like its going busy but interesting and by the end I hope to have overcome a steep learning curve.

PLAN FOR MONDAY

• learn & practice using tcpdump
• try using netcat to phase the output of tcpdump
• work out which language is best for the job in hand

I’ll update you again soon…
