MAPE is a research project funded by the French Research Agency (ANR). The goal of the project is to measure and analyze peer-to-peer exchanges for paedocriminality fighting and traffic profiling.

The main MADYNES contributions to this project will be put in active measurements and in the analysis at the application level.

The active measurement requires the design of a distributed measurement infrastructure, in order to achieve the best complementarity among the different measurement clients. We will have to improve our measurement client based on a honeypot approach.

The issues in the analysis at the application level raises some research questions about how communities are structured and how this can be observed both active and passive measurements.

In 2009, we focused on the design of new attacks on KAD, attacks that bypass the existing protection schemes agaisnt sybill attacks. These were succesfully implemented and their effciency has been demonstrated on a large testbed. The project received a successful mid-term evaluation from the ANR in november 2009.
