GIMI: Large-scale GENI Instrumentation and Measurement Infrastructure

In this GEC13 demo we will perform OML-capable Iperf throughput measurements from locations all over the US (potentially all over the world) to instances in different clouds (EC2, GENICloud, ORCA). We will demonstrate how such a measurement can be performed in an automated fashion by i) allocating required resources, ii) instantiating images that include pre-installed measurement tools, iii) permanently storing the data in a distributed repository, and iv) making results available via the GIMI portal. The result will show the network capacities from many locations into several cloud platforms. This information might be critical in deciding where an application that is highly dependent on networking performance should be hosted.

Collaborating projects:

OML/OMF

DiCloud

ORCA

Gush

WIMAX (NYU Poly)

Equipment:

1 Projector

1 Large monitor

Hi Mike,

Can you elaborate on "large monitor" ?

Specifically, the SIZE ? VGA or DVI (Specify resolution only if your software has resolution restrictions.) ?

Please let us know if you will need an A/C outlet for your laptop.

Thanks Manu

Hi Manu,

SIZE: not smaller than 32" if possible VGA

and yes, I would like to have an A/C outlet.

Thanks and have a great weekend,

Mike
