BenchmarkNetzwerke
BenchmarkNetzwerke is a term used in German-speaking networking and computer science communities to describe standardized network environments and testbeds designed for benchmarking the performance of protocols, systems, and applications. These networks are characterized by configurable topologies, controllable traffic patterns, and integrated measurement tools that support reproducible experiments across different laboratories and platforms. The goal is to provide a common baseline for comparing approaches under comparable conditions, reducing the influence of hardware and software variability on results.
Typically, BenchmarkNetzwerke include a defined network topology (such as mesh, ring, tree, or fat-tree), a data
Common applications include evaluating routing and forwarding protocols, software-defined networking controllers, distributed storage and computation frameworks,
Governance and standards around BenchmarkNetzwerke emphasize reproducibility and openness. Benchmark suites, datasets, and experiment scripts are
