[[PageOutline]] == Project Number == 1773 == Project Title == Virtual Machine Introspection and Development of a Model Federation Framework for GENI[[BR]] a.k.a. VMI-FED === Technical Contacts === '''PI:''' Kara Nance, University of Alaska Fairbanks [mailto:klnance@alaska.edu][[BR]] Brian Hay, University of Alaska Fairbanks [mailto:brian.hay@alaska.edu][[BR]] Jon Genetti, University of Alaska Fairbanks[[BR]] === Participating Organizations === [http://www.cs.uaf.edu/ Computer Science Department][[BR]] University of Alaska Fairbanks[[BR]] === GPO Liaison System Engineer === Christopher Small == Scope == This work develops secure monitoring mechanisms (Virtual Machine Introspection) for virtual machines in GENI slices, and also brings University of Alaska resources into GENI to help develop working implementations of federation and provide a diverse environment for evaluating VMI and other GENI software or experiments. Deployment begins with the Advanced System Security Education Research and Training (ASSERT) Lab, with software based on their previous work with Xen virtual monitoring. The UA CIO is directly involved in the project, and will provide realistic requirements and support for GENI deployments in environments that range from supercomputer centers to geographically isolated communities operating at the extremes of the network’s thin edge. === Current Capabilities === === Milestones === [[MilestoneDate(VMI-FED: S2.a VIX demo)]][[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(VMI-FED: S2.b ASSERT doc)]][[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(VMI-FED: S2.c GEC8 demo)]][[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(VMI-FED: S2.d resource doc)]][[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(VMI-FED: S2.e GENI VMI demo)]][[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(VMI-FED: S2.f scale up demo)]][[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(VMI-FED: S2.g analysis doc)]][[BR]] == Project Technical Documents == === Quarterly Status Reports === due 31Dec09: [wiki:ProjTemp-4Q09-status 4Q09 Status Report] === Spiral 2 Connectivity === === Related Projects ===
