-An experiment lives in a ''slice'' and experiments in one slice are isolated from experiments in other slices.
-
-
-This is possible because of the concept of a ''slice'' in GENI.  A slice consists of GENI resources (compute resources, network links, etc.) and a GENI experiment uses the resources in a slice.
-
-
-the set of GENI experimenters entitled to act on those resources.  A slice belongs to a single project, and can have multiple members.  A project can have multiple slices.
-   * Experiments live within slices i.e. they use resources reserved by their slice.
-   * Slices isolate experiments.  GENI is a shared testbed and slices ensure experimenters do not interfere with one another.
-   * Experimenters are responsible for their slice and will be held accountable for any adverse behaviors by experiments in their slices.
+   * A unit of access control.  The experimenter that creates a slice can determine which project members have access to the slice i.e. are members of the slice.  The project lead is automatically a member of all slices created in a project.
