Many mobile applications allow users to interact with their environment and each other in near real-time. These interactions take place in multiplayer games, video chat, and in-context services, such as augmented reality, or human machine interaction, for example through Siri. These applications differ from static content browsing, in that their usability depends on low latency network service delivering user requests between mobile devices and cloud datacenters, on which back-end logic is deployed, in a timely manner.
To design communication protocols that keep user request delay low across a range of network conditions, application developers need to know now only network performance characteristics such as latency, jitter, and bandwidth, but also specific network configuration and provisioning details that affect packet delay. Mobile Internet Testbed for Application Traffic Experimentation (MITATE) is a platform that allows application developers to
