= PrimoGENI Project Status Report = Period: '''2009 Q4''' (October 2009 - December 2009) == I. Major accomplishments == === A. Milestones achieved === We completed one milestone during this period: * '''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. === B. Deliverables made === 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. == II. Description of work performed during last quarter == === A. Activities and findings === 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 well-defined interface to remotely control and realize network experiments consisting of both physical, simulated and emulated network entities exchanging real network traffic. See [wiki:PrimoGENIDesignDocument PrimoGENI Aggregate 1.0 Design Document] for details. 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. === B.
