-We have set up a testbed of 4 programmable APs

-modified \wifi{} driver of Nexus 5 devices to enable \wifi{} monitor mode, which
-provides more detailed spectrum utilization information. We are currently
-developing an \PS{} Android app. We are conducting small scale controlled
-experiments, and are also preparing to deploy our system on
-\PhoneLab{}---a large smartphone testbed operated at UB.

+We have set up a group of OpenWRT APs to experiment spectrum allocation
+algorithms. We are conducting small scale experiments to show: the usefulness of
+detailed client-side measurements, the performance penalty of collecting them
+from active clients, and the feasibility of using smartphones to help nearby
