+S3MONITOR Project Status Report
+
+Period:  November 2010 to March 2011
+
+Title: Scalable, Extensible, and Safe Monitoring of GENI Clusters
+
+Authors:
+
+Sonia Fahmy, Purdue University [[BR]]
+Puneet Sharma, HP Labs
+
+I. Major accomplishments
+
+A. Milestones achieved
+
+We have completed a new version 1.0 of the Scalable Sensing Service
+system, and demonstrated it at GEC 10.
+
+We have developed a script and documentation to make the installation
+process smoother, based on feedback from Luisa Nevers at BBN.
+
+We have started planning for deployments spanning the ProtoGENI, PlanetLab, and ORCA control frameworks.
+
+We have completed several performance tests of our system.
+
+B. Deliverables made
+
+Version 1.0 of the system, and its installation and usage instructions
+was completed. The project web page that includes links to download
+the code and the installation/user guides can be found at:
+     http://illusion.hpl.hp.com/genis3monitor/
+
+A demo portal to the system has been deployed at:
+ http://mirage.hpl.hp.com:8080/s3monitor/login.jsp
+
+We have completed initial performance tests of our system. Version
+1.0 of our performance evaluation report can be found at:
+   http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/ScalableMonitoring/paper.pdf
+
+During GEC 10 in March 2011, Puneet Sharma and Sonia Fahmy
+participated in the meeting of the measurements working group, and
+gave a demo during the GEC evening demo session.
+
+II. Description of work performed since last report
+
+A. Activities and findings
+
+Version 1.0 was completed. The version includes the following features: [[BR]]
+1. Adding option to upload manifest [[BR]]
+2. Adding an administrator interface to manage user accounts [[BR]]
+3. Improved user interface [[BR]]
+4. Improved code organization [[BR]]
+5. Deployment on Planetlab nodes
+
+We have completed an installation guide and user guide for the system
+and portal.
+
+We have completed an initial report on the performance evaluation of
+the system. This includes measuring network, CPU, and disk overhead.

+D. Outreach activities
+
+Sonia Fahmy is serving as an Area TPC chair for INFOCOM 2011, INFOCOM
+2012, and ICNP 2011. She is serving on TPC of CSET 2011.  Puneet
+Sharma is serving on the TPCs of IEEE INFOCOM 2011 and ICNP 2011 TPC,
+and is the co-Chair of the Energy Efficient Networking Track at IEEE
+ICCCN 2011.
+
+The HP Labs team attended the IEEE GLOBECOM conference in December and
+presented the paper mentioned in C above.
+
+E. Collaborations
+
+We participated in almost all bi-weekly Cluster C conference calls
+held since January 2010.
+
+During GEC 10, Sonia Fahmy and Puneet Sharma had several interactions
+and discussions with potential collaborators for use and deployment of
+S3Monitor in other GENI projects.
