    The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has developed a Web Metrics Testbed to support rapid, remote testing and evaluation of a website’s usability. The tools are in the public domain and can be downloaded free. The payoff from automating some of the test functions is that website evaluation can be more economically undertaken and additional information can be gained.

Results of that research point toward ways in which network access can be more effectively and economically run.
