Network Visualization Project (NVP)

Abstract

The purpose of the Network Visualization Project is to construct an interactive application for real-time playback of network activity based upon packet capture data. As data networks continue to expand as an integral part of modern information systems, the importance of the organization and clarity of said networks grows as well. The goal of this project differs from those of similar existing tools in its attempt to optimize both content and clarity, as the product is meant to maintain aesthetic appeal without sacrificing any details of the data meant to be portrayed. The project uses Dshell for back-end data retrieval and Processing for front-end presentation and construction of the application itself.
