    7 
    8   Provide a first-order definition of the "GENI User Portal", combining the capabilities of the various "portal services" that have been implemented to date, so that GENI I&M users can use the "GENI User Portal" when they conduct experiments or instrument infrastructure.

     30 Provide a way for a GENI user (e.g., experimenter) to access a wide variety of "GENI User Portal Services", where each portal service provides an interface (e.g., API or GUI) to the user. [[BR]]
     31
     32 Together, the "GENI User Portal Services" should provide all of the functions the user needs to setup and run their experiment, then gather, analyze and present the measurement data.   [[BR]]
     33
     34 These services should work together via APIs, etc., to streamline the experiment process. [[BR]]
     35
     36==  2)  Tasks ==
     37
     38 Based upon the configuration defined below, the implementation is split into: [[BR]]
     39
     40 1)  GENI User Workspace Service, which is a persistent Linux OS environment, that serves as a container for multiple portal tools [[BR]]
     41
     42 2)  Multiple GENI User Portal Tools, where each provides an interface or "portal" to the user. [[BR]]
     43
     44 Define, prototype, deploy and operate a GENI User Workspace Service. [[BR]]
     45
     46 Gather the various "portal services" that have been implemented to date, and fit into GENI User Workspace Service so that GENI I&M users can begin to conveniently conduct experiments or instrument infrastructure. [[BR]]
     47
     48 Optimize "portal services" and their interfaces to better meet the needs of GENI users (e.g., experimenters and operators).  [[BR]]
