    291 
    292 +  IMF Overview  (see poster)[[BR]]
    293 -  IMF provides an abstraction of measurement capabilities available within the GENIsubstrate by allowing experimenters to measure properties within the substrate, such as physical layer attributes (e.g.optical or RF power) and performance parameters (e.g.BER, packet loss,CPU usage) through a unified measurement interface.[[BR]]
    294 
    295 +  IMF Architecture (see poster)[[BR]]
    296 -  An experiment slice is created by instantiating slivers of resources from multiples sites and interconnecting them.[[BR]]
    297 -  The data plane of a slice reflects the topology desired by user.[[BR]]
    298 -  The measurement plane of a slice represents the measurement functions available within the slice.[[BR]]
    299 -  A slice also has substrate environment control capability so that the precise environment of a slice may be controlled and manipulated.[[BR]]
    300 
    301 +  PubSub module included in IMF[[BR]]
    302 -  Knows about what it wants, polls MH[[BR]]
