| 11 | This tutorial provides an introduction to the Supercharged Planetlab |
| 12 | Platform, now deployed as part of the GENI infrastructure. The SPP |
| 13 | is a high performance overlay hosting platform, enabling researchers |
| 14 | to deploy overlay networks capable of handling internet-scale |
| 15 | traffic volumes. The tutorial will include background on the various |
| 16 | hardware and software components and the roles they play, plus a |
| 17 | detailed description of the tools available to users to reserve and |
| 18 | configure resources to carry out an experiment or demonstration. It |
| 19 | will also include demonstrations showing the SPPs in action and a |
| 20 | hands-on session during which participants will have an opportunity |
| 21 | to work with the SPPs themselves. |
