Scope
The scope of work on this project is to specify, build, and
demonstrate a prototype end host deployment platform consisting of
three components: a) a general-purpose yet safe execution environment
for experimenter code running on end hosts, b) a light-weight,
programmable and customizable proxy for end hosts for redirecting
end-user traffic into the GENI facility, and c) a clearinghouse for
resources contributed by end users who have opted into the system.
Specific development goals include:
- Development of a viable end-host virtual machine
- Control-plane integration, including resource discovery and reservation; experiment debug and control
- End-user configuration and management tools
- Deployment strategies such as inclusion in Bit Tyrant or web plug-in
- End-user policy & awareness issues and mechanisms

Quarterly Status Reports
Spiral 1 Connectivity
Not yet associated with a control framework---will need to pick one.
Connectivity issues need to be sorted out. End user devices will already have IP addresses. Need to figure out how they connect to clearinghouses, etc.
