The METRICS project aims to study the factors that influence our understanding of the performance of the global Internet. The METRICS project is organized around three main scientific lines of work:
    1    Advanced Instrumentation for Future IP Networks. The aim here is to develop new techniques to better instrument future-generation IP networks.
    2    Big Data Analysis in Support of Advanced Network Management and Operation. This work will explore how new data analysis tools can be used to aid network management and develop new services.
    3    APIs and Applications for Advanced Network Monitoring Capabilities. Here, we focus on defining APIs and case studies that make use of the measurement tools and analysis techniques developed in the previous lines of work.
