Hello community,

I’ve just pushed all changes to my GSoC proposal for a Measurement  
Toolbox. You can get the full PDF on

or of course access the repository on

[GitHub - marcusmueller/gsoc14-proposal: GNU Radio measurement toolbox: Proposol for a Google Summer of Code Project](https://github.com/marcusmueller/gsoc14-proposal) .

To give you a short Introduction: The idea is that doing measurements  
and benchmarks of signal processing and computational performance is a  
day-to-day job for every developer and researcher, and yet there is no  
reasonable framework to do that reliably, distributed and reproducibly.

I therefore proposed an extension to the brand new gr-benchmark tools,  
as well as a dispatcher architecture to let benchmarks run on  
different machines and minimize the total simulation time or run every  
benchmark on all machines to test things like VOLK performance.

Overall, I try to achieve a shift from the purely algorithm-oriented  
benchmarking to more of an application performance benchmarking.

Furthermore, I will integrate the tools into existing user interfaces  
(basically extending gnuradio-companion).

I’m looking forward to storms of criticism 😉  
Greetings,  
Marcus
