BOWL is a project of the Intelligent Networks (INET) group at Deutsche Telekom Laboratories.

The main goal of the BOWL project is to provide an open research platform for the wireless networking community. As our outdoor testbed also serves to provide access to the TU Berlin community, BOWL creates a unique opportunity for understanding the real-world performance of proposed solutions. Most importantly, wireless networking research needs no more to be confined to simulation or emulation in fully controlled lab environments.

The main components of the BOWL project are:

  • A modular and configurable software architecture
  • A management subsystem
  • A measurement/monitoring subsystem
