+== Scope ==
+
+This effort will integrate PlanetLab (PLC), PlanetLab Europe (PLE),
+PlanetLab Japan (PLJ)-along with other testbeds in Korea, Brazil,
+Europe, Japan, and the US-into an international federated research
+infrastructure. We will deploy and use the federation mechanisms
+developed as part of the PlanetLab cluster currently funded by the
+GPO, and focus our attention on the policy issues that arise when
+autonomous organizations federate their networks together. Funding is
+requested for Princeton (the prime) along with Université Pierre et
+Marie Curie (UPMC) and the University of Tokyo (subcontractors), which
+will drive the effort, but multiple testbeds will be federated with
+the support of this proposal. The effort will focus on resolving the
+policy issues related to federation-Princeton, UPMC, and the
+University of Tokyo already have funding to perform the necessary
+engineering work to build the mechanisms required by federation.
+
+=== Current Capabilities ===
+
+=== Milestones ===
+
+Due January 1, 2010
+        Create federated slice using SFA machinery across PLC, PLE, and PLJ. Assume minimal peering policy based on sliver count. Users interact with system using SFI command-line tool. Assume pair-wise peering among these three organizations.
+
+Due April 1, 2010
+        Demonstrate new policy engine (based on sfa_tables) by introducing richer peering policies; e.g., white-lists and black-lists.
+
+Due July 1, 2010
+        Demonstrate hierarchical (not pair-wise) peering by including VINI, M-Lab, and G-Lab in the federation.
+
+Due September 30, 2010
+        Demonstrate GUI-based interface as alternative to SFI command-line interface.
