Programmable Optical Metrics Interface (obsolete)[[BR]] a.k.a. Embedded real-time measurements [[BR]] a.k.a. ERM '''Technical Contacts''' Principal Investigator: Keren Bergman bergman@ee.columbia.edu [[BR]] Postdoctoral Fellow: Dr. Franz Fidler ff2213@columbia.edu [[BR]] Student Developer: Caroline Lai cpl2114@columbia.edu '''Participating Organizations''' Columbia University - New York City '''Scope''' Ensure GENI includes the technology to support cross-layer communications, specifically, the ability to incorporate a diverse set of real-time measurements in networking protocols. The project addresses the GENI challenge of architectural experimentations across diverse heterogeneous technologies by supporting real-time cross-layer communications and measurements. Our objective is to develop networking capabilities within the GENI infrastructure that enable deeper exposure of cross-layer information and user access to real-time measurements.
