A deep debt of gratitude
• Thank you, thank you, thank you
– Debbie Crawford
– Ty Znati
• The GENI community owes you a deep debt of gratitude
for your government service within NSF
• We tremendously appreciate everything you have done to
help advance the GENI community and at-scale
experimentation in the United States
• Now you can rest a little bit, but please don’t disappear!

Spiral Development
GENI grows through a well-structured, adaptive process
Planning • GENI Spiral 2
Early experiments, meso-scale build,
interoperable control frameworks, ongoing
Design integration, system designs for security and
instrumentation, definition of identity
management plans.
• Envisioned ultimate goal
Use
Use Example: Planning Group’s desired GENI
suite, probably trimmed some ways and
expanded others. Incorporates large-scale
distributed computing resources, high-speed
backbone nodes, nationwide optical
networks, wireless & sensor nets, etc.
• Spiral Development Process
Re-evaluate goals and technologies yearly
Integration Build out by a systematic process, decide what to
prototype and build next.

Control framework interoperability
via the GENI Aggregate Manager API 1.0
Spiral 1: tightly coupled Now: open & interoperable
Control frameworks / Clearinghouses Control frameworks / Clearinghouses
Aggregates Aggregates
Each aggregate was tightly “GENI AM API” lets you
linked to exactly one cluster mix and match aggregates
and control framework with control frameworks
PlanetLab, ProtoGENI, OpenFlow are now interoperable – more to follow

GENI Alpha Demonstrations
• Major demos planned for GEC 9
– Many in this room are creating Alpha demos
– They’re being shaken down across the national backbones,
various campuses, and GPO lab
– Many were demo’d last night
– Those “ready for prime time” will be featured prominently at GEC 9
– Audience will include industry & government leaders
• GENI Alpha Demonstrations will highlight:
– meso-scale experimentation
– diversity of research infrastructure
– interoperable GENI control frameworks
Campus involvement will be showcased – please help!

News - GPO Lab is running
• Experiment resource pool • Shakedown point for meso-scale build
– Modest collection of PlanetLab, – “Another end” for campus integrations
ProtoGENI, OpenFlow, etc. – Accessible via I2, NLR, IP tunnels
– Open to GENI researchers – Note: staff is stretched rather thin!
– Relatively stable

Experiments !
• Shakedown experiments in progress
– “The brave pioneers”
• News: GENI Experimenters Workshop
– Co-chaired by Guru Parulkar and Jennifer Rexford
– Held at Princeton, June 29-30
– 54 researchers participated (pairs of prof + student)
– Dozens of quick-turn proposals submitted to NSF
– Likely outcome: excellent experimental research starts
ramping up in late summer / early fall

Looking forward to Spiral 3
• Annual reviews this summer
– Some trimming & retasking may occur
– GENI’s general outline is becoming clearer
– Think about how you might want to reorient your work
• Major trends in Spiral 3
– Rising number of live research experiments
– Rapidly growing meso-scale build-out
– Gradual transition to reliable operations
– Continued creation & integration of tool sets
