This $100,001 Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's Division of Computing and Communication Foundations under the CFDA 47.070 Computer and Information Science and Engineering program. The grant supports a collaborative research project between the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and researchers from the University of Michigan and Merit Network. The key objectives are to:

  1. Develop new statistical methodology for detecting and mapping network delays, congestion, and broadband accessibility using end-to-end measurements, in order to enhance network situational awareness and quality of service. This will involve advancing theory and techniques in areas like network tomography and statistics of extremes.

  2. Integrate multiple data sources with demographic information to create state-wide and national maps of broadband availability at the census block level, which can inform policy decisions related to addressing the "broadband gap."

The project aims to produce novel practical tools, data products, and open-source software that will benefit the broader fields of statistics and network measurement research. In addition to the main UCLA award, the grant supports graduate and undergraduate student training to develop the next generation of network researchers and statisticians. The funding period is from October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2026.
