Other researchers have expressed interest in the system. Jeremy R. Cooperstock, an assistant professor at McGill University’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, said he hopes to use SoundWIRE in his research on high-performance videoconferencing. “The premise is very interesting, and it seems to me a relevant way of experiencing network traffic,” Cooperstock explained. It can be difficult to appreciate slight variations in traffic with graphic representations, he said, but humans can more easily appreciate and understand slight variations via audio representations. “This rich feedback is quite important.” —Linda Dailey Paulson
