{{{ #!html }}} '''Project Number''' 1600 '''Project Title''' Prototyping and Validating the GENI Control Framework[[BR]] a.k.a PlanetLab '''Technical Contacts''' Principal Investigator: Larry Peterson llp@cs.princeton.edu [[BR]] Tech staff: Tony Mack tmack@cs.princeton.edu [[BR]] Tech staff: Reed Moran rmoran@cs.princeton.edu [[BR]] Tech staff: Faiyaz: faiyaza@cs.princeton.edu '''Participating Organizations''' Princeton University[[BR]] HP '''Scope''' The scope of work on this project is to prototype the control framework that logically stitches GENI components and user-level services into a coherent system; integrates a representative set of components and autonomous organizations into a coherent, operational whole; integrates edge clusters, high-performance backbone nodes, enterprise-level nodes, and edge-sitting wireless nodes; and federates across multiple independently-controlled aggregates, including those managed by international and corporate partners. This effort will culminate in a running system that can be accessed by the network research community. Specific development goals include creating and deploying component manager packages and clearinghouse packages; operating a prototype clearinghouse; making reference clearinghouse and component manager implementations available via download to GENI prototype developers to use in their own aggregate or campus infrastructures; providing limited integration and development support for those users so that reference implementations can be deployed at multiple GENI locations; and providing GENI user access to PlanetLab (800 nodes, 400 sites).
