In this thesis, we present an approach to perform measurements in the worldwide research network PlanetLab. We describe a framework for developing and deploying Java applications on PlanetLab and show how it can be used to develop data gathering applications. In particular, we implement a latency and a bandwidth test of which we also present some ndings derived from its analyses.
