[[PageOutline]] = Instrumentation and Measurement (I&M) Working Session = Thursday, March 17, 2011, 1:00pm - 4:00pm [[BR]] Room: Bahia 2 [[BR]] Session Leader: Harry Mussman, (GPO, Raytheon BBN Technologies) [[BR]] == Description == This session will review three key instrumentation and measurement (I&M) topics still under study by the GENI I&M community, and present the status of a prototype Measurement Data Archive (MDA) service. [[BR]] Each topic will be reviewed by a member of the community, and then opened for discussion and a determination of the next steps.
