[[BR]] some at UK [[BR]] some at IU [[BR]] more browser testing: Firefox OK; Chrome ?; Safari x; IE ? [[BR]] 3) Agree on goals: [[BR]] a) GEMINI (and GIMI) to work with InstaGENI and ExoGENI [[BR]] b) Aim for consistent user experience, both racks, both sets of I&M tools (towards unified experiment environment) [[BR]] c) Implement basic workflow per http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/GeniExperiments#a5StepsinBasicGENIExperimentTutorialTestWorkflowHarry and http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/TestTutorialExperimentWorkflow [[BR]] d) Easy to setup basic set of measurements (towards unified experiment environment) [[BR]] e) Easy to mix-and-match tools, as go from step to step, with automatic transfer of info between steps/tools [[BR]] f) Easy to configure and then visualize (graph) measurements, starting with topology of resources [[BR]] g) Ability to simultaneously do multiple measurements and multiple graphs, during an experiment [[BR]] h) Stay consistent with Spiral 5 GEMINI SOW [[BR]] i) Negotiate Spiral 6 GEMINI SOW by GEC17, so that there is no gap in funding at 093013 [[BR]] 4) Build workflow for GEMINI to work on both InstaGENI and ExoGENI [[BR]] a) Start with browser, GENI Desktop, FLACK and OMNI, for InstaGENI [[BR]] b) Start with User Workspace, Flukes and OMNI for ExoGENI [[BR]] c) When can InstaGENI be used with ExoGENI? also GENI Desktop? [[BR]] d) Which browsers are supported? [[BR]] e) Whick credentials are supported? [[BR]] f) Need detailed plan from team: Jeannie, Louisa, Ezra, Hussam, Ilia and Cong [[BR]] g) Current InstaGENI configuration per attached figure; changes? [[BR]] h) Current ExoGENI configuration? [[BR]] 4/16: Sub-team has met, made plan; see http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/IMInteroperability [[BR]] 4/16: Biggest issue for extension into ExoGENI: making fedora images; but, could be done later, if start with loading software [[BR]] 5) Add features to GEMINI Portal (GENI Desktop) service: [[BR]] a) Register with GENI Clearinghouse Service Registry (low) [[BR]] b) Single sign-on, from GENI Experimenter Portal, as alternate way to get credentials (step 2) [[BR]] 4/2: Hussam and Tom/Aaron; in progress (low) [[BR]] 4/16: Hussam; working on it, reviewing proposals from Aaron Helsinger [[BR]] c) Push topology to UNIS, then retrieve topology from UNIS for display (high) [[BR]] 4/16: Ezra forwarded [http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/GEMINIv2tasks/GEMINI_instrumentize_integration.pdf paper with options], but was not present to review. [[BR]] 4/16: Discussed presented options; Jim: parser prepares data for the components, and has it available BEFORE instrumentize script run; without more discussion, need to keep with current approach (Proposal 1) [[BR]] d) Plugin to configure GEMINI active measurements (w/o going to GN) (high) [[BR]] 4/16: Ezra, Charles and Hussam; will make a proposal [[BR]] 4/30: Ezra provides [http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/GEMINIv2tasks/043013_Proposal_activemeasruementpage.txt proposal] [[br]] e) Plugin to push GEMINI measurement data objects (and descriptors) to iRODS, with proper structure (high) [[BR]] 4/16: Ezra, Charles and Hussam; will make a proposal [[BR]] f) Plugin to gather basic experiment info, and push descriptor files, including annotations, to iRODS, with proper structure (like e)) (med) [[BR]] g) Plugin to link to iRODS web interface, to curate user's files (med) [[BR]] 4/16: complete, based on available script [[BR]] h) Consider "universal" plugin, to get an active web service? [[BR]] 6) Add features to measurement services: BLiPP and MS [[BR]] a) Verify current set of passive host measurements, and define any desired extensions when? [[BR]] b) Complete set of active network measurements to match LAMP, and define any desired extensions [[BR]] 4/16: Matt: the real problem is configuration; working on representing all active measurements in UNIS as a propoer resource; will have a proposal on 043013 [[BR]] 4/30: Matt: [http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/GEMINIv2tasks/BLiPP%20Measurement%20Architecture.pdf slides] and [http://unis.incntre.iu.edu/schema/blippmeasurements/20130429/ping ping schema] [[br]] c) +Work with GMOC to define network monitoring use case, support GMOC in its use of active network measurements for network monitoring, and define any desired extensions [[BR]] 4/2: Martin; continue to talk with GMOC; when to report? [[BR]] d) +Work with GMOC to consider how to best support OF in GENI testbed infrastructure 4/2: ? [[BR]] 4/16: Laura will inquire/push [[BR]] e) Plan how to use NetLogger to gather custom measurements from an experiment application into BLiPP, and prototype [[BR]] 4/2: not yet in GEMINI [[BR]] 4/16: Matt, Dan to provide a plan; starting 043013 [[BR]] 7) Prepare tutorials for multiple use cases, identify and fix any "kinks", support off-line use of tutorials, and evaluate user experineces at GEC17 (and before) to guide further development [[BR]] a) Classroom exercies [[BR]] b) Research experiments [[BR]] c) Network monitoring [[BR]] 8) Prototype User Workspace to retrieve measurment data and descriptors from iRODS, and prepare for further analysis and presentation [[BR]] 9) By 7/9: v2 ready for testing [[BR]] 10) On 7/21 - 7/23 at GEC17: v2 software released after testing; integrated tutorials presented [[BR]] * In cooperation with GIMI team [[BR]] + In cooperation with GMOC team [[BR]] == 5) Key Task List == || '''ID''' || '''Description''' || '''Assignee''' || '''Due''' || '''Status''' || '''Demos''' || '''Notes''' || || 2a || /cleanup/checkin/test/document current code || Kissel ||4/30/13 || In progress || || || || 2C || Desktop Browser support- additional testing/planned set of browsers || UK || || In progress || || Firefox and Chrome should work.
