| 9 | ==== Description ==== |
| 10 | |
| 11 | This meeting will seek agreement on an approach to identity and |
| 12 | attributes in GENI. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | GENI requires a way of positively identifying experimenters and |
| 15 | granting them access to tools and resources. Current control |
| 16 | frameworks either maintain their own database of users or explicitly |
| 17 | outsource this task to an identity provider. In addition to |
| 18 | identifying experimenters, GENI needs information about attributes |
| 19 | like institutional affiliation, project role, etc. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | The goal of this session is to discuss proposals and reach community |
| 22 | consensus on a way forward for identity management and attributes in |
| 23 | GENI. |
