| 7 | === A. Milestones achieved === |
| 8 | |
| 9 | We completed one milestone during this period: |
| 10 | |
| 11 | * '''PrimoGENI: S2.a. Initial design document''': We presented the initial design document that describes how to integrate PRIME into ProtoGENI, and a detailed implementation plan for the PrimoGENI aggregate. The document has been posted on wiki. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | === B. Deliverables made === |
| 14 | |
| 15 | We are current in the middle of developing a fully-functional PrimoGENI aggregate. We expect to deliver our first full-fledged implementation in July 2010. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | == II. Description of work performed during last quarter == |
| 18 | |
| 19 | === A. Activities and findings === |
| 20 | |
| 21 | The goal of our project is to incorporate real-time network simulation capabilities (in particular, our real-time network simulator called PRIME) into the GENI "ecosystem". In order to interact with other GENI facilities, PRIME functions as a GENI aggregate (component), so that experimenters can use a |
| 22 | well-defined interface to remotely control and realize network experiments consisting of both physical, simulated and emulated |
| 23 | network entities exchanging real network traffic. See [wiki:PrimoGENIDesignDocument PrimoGENI Aggregate 1.0 Design Document] for details. |
| 24 | |
| 25 | Currently, we are developing an initial prototype of the system. We expect to demonstrate the functions of the prototype at GEC 7 in March 2010. |
