How do we know when an IXP is working well? What goals should it achieve, and can success be measured in the same way everywhere? A new RIPE NCC report takes a closer look at these questions in the context of the SEE region.| RIPE Labs
Since we launched Khipu, we’ve been working to pin down the most useful, real-world workflows. This article walks through six core use cases - from outage detection, though routing policy validation, to exploring IXPs along network paths.| RIPE Labs
Autocast turns one round of unicast latency measurements into millisecond-accurate predictions, automatically selecting the optimal anycast locations for fast .nl response times worldwide. Pairing simulated annealing with real resolver telemetry, it delivers lean, cost-aware PoP sets - often around 11–13 sites - that rival painstaking manual tuning without a single trial BGP announcement.

Italy’s Piracy Shield blocks IPs and domains within minutes, but measurements performed by researchers at the University of Twente and colleagues show broad collateral damage to legitimate services. We share the results of those measurements in the hopes of sparking a community discussion around the Piracy Shield initiative| RIPE Labs
As part of our research into post-quantum cryptography (PQC) for DNSSEC, we test PQC as a drop-in replacement for classical algorithms. We explore a transition where both run simultaneously, analysing how resolvers validate records, edge cases, and the feasibility and impact of such a period.| RIPE Labs
These are the results from a long-term data collection project that will generate a set of size-inclusive and shape-inclusive body measurements for garment design, both crochet and knit| Yarnandy
In this article, we explore various size inclusive body measurements from around the world and compile a starting set of measurements that will be the basis of my future designs.| Yarnandy
Software systems researchers want to make human-centered claims, but don’t have the proper tools to do so. That’s how we ended up with the ubiquitous lines-of-code comparison found in e…| SIGPLAN Blog
In this guide, you can follow step by step instructions on how to measure yourself so you can find the best fitting patterns for your proportions, or to be able to alter patterns and even design your own garments that fit perfectly.| Yarnandy

Parts of Europeans cars are pretty much always in metric: 10 mm nut, 15 mm diameter hose and so on. After all, most of the world uses metres, centimetres, kilograms, watts, and other Si system units. However, for some reason rims are still measured in inches, regardless of where you live. And that’s a little weird.| Nodum.org
You may have noticed that some pressure gauges are liquid-filled. These measuring devices are often installed in industrial equipment, hydraulic and other systems. What is that liquid inside and what function does it perform?| Nodum.org
