David Woolley is right, the project is about making the measurements, although I don't like the idea of doing them blindly, without knowing how to interpret the results. I won't have time to investigate the deeps of NTP, but I do want to know the basics, as that's one of the objectives of my thesis.
I think you misunderstood my point. Your project is effectively, how do you measure one way delay when the only source of timing is over the network you are studying. It is not what are the one way delays in the particular network you mention.
You can only properly do that with a deep understanding of the protocols, as you are going to have to look for second order effects that may allow you to recover information that wouldn't be recoverable if they system only showed first order effects.
I don't know the exact context in which the project brief was given, but it is even possible that you were expected to realise this yourself.
