During the current development cycle of Netest (http://www-
didc.lbl.gov/NCS/netest), Jin is now able to calculate the bandwidth
capacity by two different means. The first is a direct observation of
network characteristics, the second is an approximation from measurement
frequencies and statistical inferrences.
I noticed that our current enumeration of properties for this event does
not take into account how the value was derived. I think this is just as
important as to how the value was measured.
To put it out for discussion, would it be useful to incorporate another
property to enumerate this?
I.e., ValueDerivationMethod = {Measured|Estimated}
It is not clear to me now wheather or not this can be utilized in other
event's property lists.
