Internet network performance problems are not only annoying to users -- they are costly to businesses and network operators. But since the Internet has no built-in monitoring system, network problems often go unnoticed. To help fix this problem, researchers have developed a new way to detect and report such problems in real time. Network Early Warning System focuses only on problems that affect end-users and does so without requiring any extra network-measurement traffic.
