| 28 | The nature of the GENI Engineering Conferences has evolved along with the GENI project. |
| 29 | Early GECs focused almost exclusively on how we would define and build GENI. |
| 30 | More recent GECs have expanded to add a host of additional topics: |
| 31 | a very robust series of tutorials, |
| 32 | demonstrations and workshops that highlight the progress of GENI and GENI-supported research, |
| 33 | classroom applications of GENI and GENI-supported curriculum, |
| 34 | collaboration with peer efforts in the US and worldwide, |
| 35 | and more. |
| 36 | |
| 37 | In this informal working session, we will discuss what's working and what isn't. |
| 38 | We'll brainstorm and discuss ideas for future GECs, both near-term, and as GENI moves past its current phase of intensive development and deployment. |
