= T4)  GENI I&M Testing Environment  =
Platform Targets  [[BR]]
Experiment and Measurement Orchestration Tools  [[BR]]
Interfaces/Protocols Between Tools and Services  [[BR]]



== 1)  Goals ==
 Provide a concise definition of the GENI environment for acceptance testing and operating GENI I&M tools.  [[BR]]
 Define a step-by-step process for the GEMINI and GIMI tools sets over Spirals 4, 5 and 6 such that: [[BR]]
  They deliver useful tools in each spiral  [[BR]]
  They eventually provide tools that can be included in slices built with any type of GENI hosts [[BR]]
  Included GENI hosts should be those provided by ExoGENI and InstaGENI racks, as soon as they are available [[BR]]

==  2)  Tasks ==
 Define the environment where the GENI I&M tools must operate and will be tested, including:  [[BR]] 
  User tools and services for experiment and measurement, setup and orchestration [[BR]]
  Interfaces/protocols/APIs between user tools and GENI aggregates  [[BR]]
  Included GENI aggregtaes, with enumerated topologies  [[BR]]

===  6.1)  Spiral-by-Spiral Goals ===

 Define a step-by-step process for the GEMINI and GIMI tools sets over Spirals 4, 5 and 6 such that: [[BR]]
  They deliver useful tools in each spiral  [[BR]]
  They eventually provide tools that can be included in slices built with any type of GENI hosts [[BR]]
  Included GENI hosts should be those provided by ExoGENI and InstaGENI racks, as soon as they are available [[BR]]

 Start where they are now: [[BR]]
  GEMINI is based on LAMP and INSTOOLS, that have been demonstrated/used on Emulab/protoGENI resources [[BR]]
  GIMI is based on OML, that has operated in the OMF environment.  However, a GIMI co-PI (Ilia Baldine) is also PI of the ORCA and ExoGENI projects [[BR]]

 Goals for Spiral 4:
  By the end of Spiral 4, GEMINI tools will test/operate in slices built in Emulab/protoGENI/InstaGENI environment [[BR]]
  By the end of Spiral 4, GIMI tools will test/operate in slices built in ORCA/ExoGENI environemnt [[BR]]
  As much as possible, the two groups will use common user tools and common interfaces/protocols/APIs [[BR]]
  As much as possible, the two groups will avoid arrangements customized to one environment [[BR]]
  Both groups will be ready to provide tutorials on their capabilities starting at GEC-14. [[BR]]
