+= BGP Mux Project Status Report = 
+
+Period: January-March 2010
+
+== I. Major accomplishments ==
+
+
+=== A. Milestones achieved ===
+
+During this period of performance, we focused on the educational aspects
+of the BGP Mux project, integrating the BGP Mux into coursework, in the
+form of problem sets and course lectures.  One of the course projects
+was to build a virtual network and connect that network to the Internet
+via the BGP Mux.  Nine groups of students successfully completed this
+project.
+
+We also continued the research related to the BGP Mux.  We submitted a
+paper on the BGP Mux to the USENIX Annual Technical conference.  The
+paper has been accepted for publication and will be presented in June
+2010 in Boston.
+
+=== B. Deliverables made ===
+
+One of the major deliverables for the BGP Mux this quarter was the
+intergration of the BGP Mux into academic courses.  To this end, we
+designed a course on "next-generation networking" that incorporated many
+tools and technologies from GENI projects, including the BGP Mux.  We
+have created a problem set where students configure a virtual network
+and connect that network to the Internet via the BGP Mux.  We also read
+the BGP Mux USENIX paper in the course.
+
+== II. Description of work performed during last quarter ==
+
+=== A. Activities and findings ===
+
+  * Problem set that makes use of BGP Mux
+  * Design and delivery of new Next-Generation Networking Course
+  * Paper submitted and accepted to USENIX Annual Technical Conference
+
+=== B. Project participants ===
+
+  * Vytautas Valancius, Ph.D. student
+  * Yogesh Mundada, Ph.D. student
+
+=== C. Publications (individual and organizational) ===
+
+  * Wide-Area Routing for Distributed Services.  Vytautas Valancius,
+    Nick Feamster, Jennifer Rexford, Aki Nakao.  USENIX Annual Techical
+    Conference.  Boston, MA.  June 2010.
+
+  * White paper for GENI Experimenters Workshop
+
+=== D. Outreach activities ===
+
+  * New graduate course, Next-Generation Networking, developed.  The
+    course had more than 40 enrolled graduate students who learned about
+    various next-generation networking technologies, including OpenFlow,
+    NetFPGA, BGP Mux, and Emulab/ProtoGENI.
+
+=== E. Collaborations ===
+
+=== F. Other Contributions ===
+
+None.
