An OpenNetInf-based cloud computing solution for cross-layer QoS: Monitoring part using iOS terminals

This paper presents a monitoring application for quality of service parameters, called iQoSStats, dealing with Available Transfer Rate and One-Way Delay. The tool is running on iOS5-based iPad terminal. Due to the lack of Java support, a proxy server is needed to allow the connection to the cloud computing solution based on OpenNetInf. It relies on an information-centric communication paradigm and provides large-scale information dissemination. The intention was to use this infrastructure to support cross-layer QoS for the Future Internet.
