307 | | The Software Defined Exchange (SDX) is a recently defined concept that is motivated by the need of applications to, via software programs, dynamically acquire and control network, computation and storage resources. An SDX is a meeting place where resource owners (e.g., cloud or network operators) advertise the availability of their wares and where applications go to identify, pay for and acquire resources to support their needs. These needs may change over time and the SDX supports such dynamic reconfiguration. In effect the SDX allows applications to acquire a software defined “Slice” of the Internet and resources that are connected to it. It is a traditional market bringing together sellers and buyers of goods. Its availability will democratize the ability of new applications to compete in a variety of markets served by different resource providers. The SDX together with “slicing” and “software defined infrastructure” have the potential to revolutionize the Internet and to enable an exciting new generation of applications. Of course, this very high level description belies the complex financial, policy, security and technical problems that must be overcome to fully realize the potential of the SDX. Prototype SDXs are now being established to explore and address these problems in a collaborative atmosphere. |

317 | | This demo will show what the strength is of international federation of testbeds. We will demonstrate the current international federation in production (='what a student can use today ?') by building large international topologies on existing testbeds. We will demonstrate the possibility of provisioning and controlling experiments with 1000+ international resources, based on resources in GENI (US), Fed4FIRE (EU) and VNode (Japan). |
318 | | This is all possible by implementing the same APIs on testbeds and tools over the globe. |

336 | | In this demo, two vehicles equipped with virtualized vehicular sensing and control (VSC) platforms are collecting real time sensing data while driving around Detroit midtown. Through the WSU GENI WiMAX network and GENI VLAN, the sensed data are send to different users and are used to serve their various experiments, emulations, or real-world applications such as vehicle fuel economy sensing, real-time 3D reconstruction of images. In particular, we will demonstrate that VSC network emulation executes in the ExoGENI racks to show the impact of novel solutions from NSF-funded research such as those on reliable, real-time wireless communication. |

343 | | By the end of the decade, it is expected that the US Department of Transportation (DOT) will require all new vehicles to be capable of communicating with other vehicles and roadside infrastructure through wireless communications. The primary motivation of connected vehicles (CV) envisioned by the US DOT is to reduce the number of crashes that cost more than 30,000 lives every year on US highways. The crash avoidance applications supported by vehicle to vehicle (V2V) and vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) connectivity exchange safety critical information such as speed, location and direction of movement to assess the crash risk based on the proximity of vehicles. In this demo, we will show how to exploit the GENI Wireless and Cloud resources and SDN to enhance the connected vehicle applications. Particularly, we will build a testbed along a segment of I-85 near Clemson ICAR campus. GENI WiMAX has already covered that segment of interstate. We will further build DSRC enabled RSUs along the road for vehicles to access. On-board units with both WiMAX and DSRC interfaces will be equipped on testing vehicles. |

361 | | We will demo the Paradrop Platform, which is a software platform that allows developers to launch applications onto specialized Access Points that exist in the home. This provides the ability to introduce unique control and high quality value adds onto services the end-user chooses to use in their home including applications related to Internet of Things, high-definition media content distribution, and others. For this demo, we will showcase the Platform's ability to dynamically launch and control virtual machines that are running within the Access Point for a few specific services. |
