2. http://CRAWDAD.cs.dartmouth.edu March 2007 What is CRAWDAD? Community Resource for Archiving Wireless Data At Dartmouth Co-led by David Kotz and Tristan Henderson Hosted by the Center for Mobile Computing at Dartmouth College Funded by US National Science Foundation Archive Wireless-network traces Tools for trace collection HOWTO documents in wiki Support for the research community Event calendar Bibliography Specialist groups (MANET, Education) Annual Workshop (free!)

3. http://CRAWDAD.cs.dartmouth.edu March 2007 Why CRAWDAD? Get access to real wireless data Understand real network usage and identify the real problem Evaluate solutions better than simulation Data is hard to collect – leverage effort to benefit all Make our field more scientific Reusing/sharing data is good practice More appreciation (citations!) if you share data Learn from others’ experience Learn in more ways than from a paper

4. http://CRAWDAD.cs.dartmouth.edu March 2007 CRAWDAD is growing! (as of March 2007) 541 users from 327 institutions around the world 23 data sets 802.11, MANET, VANET, Sensor-net, DTN, mobility 12 tools collect, process, sanitize, analyze, … 70 papers Staff: full-time programmer plus 2 undergrads contact: crawdad@cs.dartmouth.edu

5. http://CRAWDAD.cs.dartmouth.edu March 2007 CRAWDAD for GENI CRAWDAD as archive for GENI wireless data Provide traces from production networks to drive experiments on GENI testbeds Archive measurements from testbed experiments Indexing,annotating, and sanitizing for sharing Why? CRAWDAD is already the “go-to” site for wireless Improve the scientific process through data sharing Encourage repeatability Encourage new analysis of prior work Encourage proper comparison with prior work Encourage production of common tools and formats

6. http://CRAWDAD.cs.dartmouth.edu March 2007 CRAWDAD “At a minimum, we in the CRAWDAD project would be happy to become the official data- sharing site for wireless experimental data exported from GENI experiments. We may also be interested in expanding our services to link more closely into the GENI's archival system itself, to support wireless measurement and experimental-data storage, to ease the annotation and export of experimental data into public archives.” – David Kotz and Tristan Henderson
