Title: Specification of test cases and selection of the suitable test methods
Start month:  M5 M6 (Mar 2011)
End month:  M9 M12 (Sep 2011)
Leader: TELIT
Participants:  CNIT  ALU  MLX  LQDE  TEI  TELIT  GRNET  NASK  ETY 
Objectives: 
  • Identify representative test case devices for each industrial sector meeting end user requirements specified in T2.1.
  • Define reference benchmarking scenarios reflecting typical communication pattern over different home, access, transport and technologies by relevant user groups.
  • Define energy efficiency evaluation criteria (performance metrics, including performance for green-aware and performance of network usability) to assure quality control, optimise process parameters and set up test procedures.
  • Investigate energy-aware extensions of standard benchmarking and performance evaluation methodologies for networks and single devices (e.g. IETF RFCs 2544 and 4061);
  • Define the reference scenario for large-scale network testing to be performed in TELIT, NASK and GRNET test plants.
  • Define test plan strategies and specify evaluation criteria, usability of OAM applications, procedures for the test cases to be carried out in WP6.
