Chris,  It was Charles Lynn at BBN (CLynn@BBN.COM) who gave that network
statistics presentation.  He is leading the session on Network Management
in the March 87 TCP/IP Interoperability conference and like Diogenes is
stil looking for the truth...  I remember his presentation and was 
awestruck at the level of implementation detail he sought in order
to get a suitable baseline of statistics for monitoring the health of
the "network".  (All of the statistics he asked for do essentially
exist in any real implementation because of the retransmission 
requirements of TCP.)
