  1. Mini-Projects Jean-Yves Le Boudec 1

  2. Goal • Practice skills of performance analyst • Methodology • Presentation

  3. 1: Identify Topic • Preferably based on a project of your own • Current or past • May alss be based on one or several published papers • 2 people per project in principle • Goal = Present performance evaluation results • Technical work · size of one homework • Presentation work • Post your definition on Moodle by April 15 • Get feedback from us the following week • If you do not find any, announce yourself on Moodle by April 15 as well 3

  4. 2: Do It • Address the following points • What is your goal ? What are the main issues ? Which ones require a detailed performance analysis • What are : the load and the metrics ? • What are the factors ? Are there hidden factors ? • What is the solution method used by you or the paper ? • Use the scientific method to draw conclusions in an iterative way. • If required, do more numerical analyses or experiments • Which performance patterns did you encounter ? • Give your results with confidence intervals if appropriate. • Present your work in a slide show 4

  5. 3: First Attempt • Put the answers to these points in a slide show and give a presentation • ca.15 mn i.e. 10 slides • Private Defence: confession or dry-run • Private defence • Not graded • Feedback given orally by professor • May 27 or 28 5

  6. 4: Second Attempt • Public defence • Public defence • Two colleagues are your audience ; they must summarize what they understood • You are audience for one other group, drawn randomly during session • Both roles are graded • June 3 and 4 6

  7. 5. Archive Put all other documents (e.g. papers, source codes, matlab scripts) in a zip file on Moodle so we can reproduce your findings. 7

  8. Dos and Donts • Do: prepare a first slide show for private defence and listen to feedback received • Don’t: spend too much time re-doing all simulations • Don’t believe everything that is written in the literature • Do: make graphics that are • Economical • True

  9. What’s wrong with this graphic ? Made with data from: 9

  10. Better Graphics • Y scale starts at 0 • Previous representation was not true

  11. Perhaps Even Better Graphics • Baseline and Green DC are non dominated • Representation is more economical

  12. Examples of Past Topics • Path Planning with the humanoid robot iCub • Realistic Spammer Component for AntispamLab: Spammer model which defeats classical digest-based filters • Simulation of Delay Tolerant Messaging System • SIR Epidemic Propagation in Mobile Networks • Predict the network load in a GSM network built on an aircraft fleet • Comparing the performance of SLEF implementations (self-limiting epidemic service for ad hoc networks) • Behavior of a wireless ad-hoc network used in robot swarm • Modeling and Predicting Disk Failures in a Distributed Storage System • Secret Sharing in Online Social Networks
