'''Project Number''' 1582 '''Project Title''' Deploying a Vertically Integrated GENI “Island”: A Prototype GENI Control Plane (ORCA) for a Metro-Scale Optical Testbed (BEN) [[BR]] a.k.a.

Also, to make a reference implementation of ORCA available to additional GENI prototypes and assist, with limited support, in the integration of ORCA into select wireless/sensor prototypes. The team will operate a clearinghouse for the various testbeds under the ORCA control framework. Also, connect with the NLR backbone network !FrameNet service to facilitate end-to-end VLAN's connections into BEN. Finally, make the integrated (VLAN connections and control framework) ORCA/BEN infrastructure available to external researchers by the end of Year-1.
