Pramana: A Composable, Domain-Specific Backend for Empirical Networking Research

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.26352v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Networking research advances by turning hypotheses into empirical evidence, so accelerating it means reducing the lag between ideation (synthesizing a hypothesis) and generating the data that tests it. Consider a concrete case: does a bulk BBR download fairly share its bottleneck with competing real-time Google Meet traffic? Validating this requires configuring a realistic bottleneck link, concurrently generating BBR's bulk transfer and Meet's real-time traffic, and collecting relevant service-quality metrics. Today this overhead is high, often forcing researchers to start from scratch for every new idea. This ideation-to-data-generation gap will only worsen in the agentic AI era, where AI-assisted ideation accelerates exponentially, yet it
