GENI Instrumentation and Measurement Working Group

Charter

Scope: Discuss, develop and build consensus around the architectural framework for the instrumentation and measurement infrastructure that will be deployed and used in GENI.

Chairs: Paul Barford Bruce Maggs

GPO System Engineer: Harry Mussman

Mail list: mail to inst-meas-wg@geni.net / subscribe / mailman archive

Objectives:

Create an architecture for measurement that ensables GENI goals to be achieved, document and refine
Facilitate dialog and coordination between teams focussed on I&M
Identify key challenges in I&M that could otherwise inhibit the infrastructure
Solicit feedback from users
Communicate via mailing list, wiki, GECs

Meeting Minutes and Presentations


Work-in-Progress

  • GENI I&M Capabilities Catalog v0.1 DRAFT includes overview slides, spreadsheet of catalog, and drawings from referenced projects. This effort will review each current GENI I&M project, and other selected projects, and list: architecture components addressed or implemented; implementations in GENI, or elsewhere; and uses in GENI, or elsewhere.

The purpose is to: identify projects that can best contribute to architecture components and identify projects that can implement enhanced GENI capabilities in Spiral 2.

  • Common schema for measurement data. For example, see recent DatCat project, that provides a catalog that indexes Internet measurement data, which you can then find, annotate, and cite.

  • Common mechanism for accessing data

  • Gather in one document the measurements desired for experiments by other projects, i.e., target problems

References

  • Vision for GENI I&M (per Barford on 11/18/09)
    instrumentation and measurement systems provide broad data gathering, analysis and archieval capability
    sufficient for scientific mission
    sufficient for operations
    key for success of the infrastructure
  • Requirementsfor for GENI I&M (initial view) (per Barford on 11/18/09)
    measure details of GENI behavior with high precision and accuracy
    no impact on experiments
    ubiquitous
    extensible
    large capacity
    high availability
    resilient
    strong access control
    tight integration with CFs
  • Conceptual strawman (per Barford on 11/18/09)
    instrumentation - taps in the metwork and systems that provide basic signals
    collection and synthesis - programmable systems that collect, combine and transform basic signals
    archieve - measurement data index and repository
  • DatCat project, that provides a catalog that indexes Internet measurement data, which you can then find, annotate, and cite.
