The disclosure provides an approach for measuring performance between a virtualized desktop infrastructure (VDI) client running on a client device and a remote computing device. Embodiments include generating, by a performance client on the client device, an event and storing a time associated with generating the event. Embodiments include transmitting, by the VDI client to the remote computing device, a message based on the OS event. Embodiments include determining, by a performance agent on the remote computing device, a time associated with receiving the message at the remote computing device and causing an indication of the time to be displayed in a virtual desktop screen. Embodiments include extracting, by the performance client, from the virtual desktop screen, the time, and determining a performance metric based on the extracted time and the time associated with receiving the message at the remote computing device.

The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer readable media for proactive network testing. One method for proactive network testing includes receiving, by a test controller and via a network tap, at least one metric associated with live network traffic; determining, by the test controller and using the at least one metric and a threshold value associated with the at least one metric, that a network test is to be performed; configuring, by the test controller, a first test agent to execute the network test; and executing, by the first test agent, the network test.

Improved testing of medical devices, in particular medical devices providing wireless communication capabilities. A communication link between a medical device under test and the communication tester is established and a signal quality indicator of the established communication link is monitored while interfering the communication link by one or more interfering signals.

A system includes a first device and a second device coupled to a link having one or more paths associated with transmitting a clock signal. The first device is to transmit a set of bits associated with a pattern via the one more paths. The set of bits are transmitted using a first clock signal having a first frequency less than a second frequency associated with data transmission operations. The second device is to receive the set of bits associated with the pattern, determine a number of pulses associated with the set of bits over a first period, and determine the number of pulses, associated with the set of bits, satisfies a predetermined condition relating to the number of pulses for the first period. The second device is to initiate a training of the link in response to determining the number of pulses satisfies the predetermined condition.

The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented methods, software, and systems for detecting outages in a cloud environment. Internal web agents installed at corresponding network segments of a first cloud platform and external web agents installed at an external second cloud platform are configured to perform network calls between themselves and the other web agents. Data from the internal web agents is automatically collected to generate structured data defining network connectivity status corresponding to the network segments of the first cloud platform based on the performed network calls between the internal and external web agents. In response to evaluating the structured data, a health status of network connectivity of the first cloud platform is determined. The health status can be provided to platform services provided by the first cloud platform and/or applications running on the first cloud platform to support managing of lifecycles of entities running on the first cloud platform.

The present disclosure relates generally to network diagnostics, and more specifically to techniques for determining the health of customer premises equipment (CPE) devices. In certain examples, a scoring system can determine a health score for a CPE device, the health score indicating the health of the CPE device. The health score is determined by receiving, analyzing, and integrating information from different sources, including sources in addition to CPE diagnostic data for the CPE device at the current time. Such sources can include CPE diagnostic data for the CPE device at other times, CPE diagnostic data for other CPE devices related to the CPE device (e.g., in the same household or surrounding area as the CPE device), technical specifications of the CPE device (e.g., make, model and firmware of the CPE device), or per-equalization parameters obtained by the CPE device.

Tools and techniques are described to automate commissioning of physical spaces. Controllers have access to databases of the devices that are controlled by them, including wiring diagrams and protocols, such that the controller can automatically check that each wire responds correctly to stimulus from the controller. Controllers also have access to databases of the physical space such that they can check that sensors in the space record the correct information for device activity, and sensors can cross-check each other for consistency. Once a physical space is commissioned, incentives can be sought based on commissioning results.
