It is defined by scenarios where end users (not researchers) become involved with GENI experiments, and by the services and capabilities necessary to support them.

It is defined by scenarios where end users (not researchers) become involved with GENI experiments, and by the services and capabilities necessary to support them.

Agenda

• Goals• Introduction to WG SE and roles• Overview of Opt-in scenarios and capabilities• Relevant Spiral 1 projects• Current Opt-in issues and tasks• Planned Opt-in documents


Goals (for this meeting)

• Understand WG SE roles• Get overview of opt-in WG activities• Discuss work plan for coming year, and make

suggestions• Recommend collaborators and authors


Who am I?

• Harry Mussman– Current: Senior Systems Engineer in the GPO at BBN– Last: Voice-over-IP architect at BridgePort Networks

(a startup) and GTE Internetworking/Genuity– BSEE Univ Michigan, MSEE Northwestern Univ, PhD

Stanford Univ– [email protected]

• GENI roles:– Opt-in WG SE– Control Framework WG SE– GPO coordinator for six Spiral 1 projects


Role of Opt-in WG SE

• Frame technical issues from top-down – Collect issues from WG, compile and revise– Use to identify and structure WG documents

• Synthesize input from bottom-up– Collect input from WG, and distribute– Look for and summarize consensus (or lack of it)

• Draft WG documents…– Manage process to completion

• Assist WG communications– Take and distribute notes– Maintain wiki


How WG Creates Document

• SE drafts document• GPO does internal review• SE posts first draft

– On wiki (to start); repository up RSN

• WG discusses document on WG list– Possible one-on-one follow-ups

• SE assembles changes, and revises• SE posts revision• (Repeat, until document completed)


Overview of GENI Opt-in Scenarios and Capabilities

• “GENI end-user opt-in is defined by scenarios where end users (not researchers) become involved with GENI experiments, and by the capabilities necessary to support them.”

• Each opt-in scenario involves:– One or more use cases.– A set of players, with differing motivations.– Unique issues.

• Each opt-in scenario requires:– A set of policies and best practices.– One or more underlying GENI capabilities to make it

Opt-in Scenarios

• Have currently identified four distinct scenarios (which can overlap).

• Scenario 1: An experiment on GENI that provides a service to users and/or others

• Scenario 2: An experiment on GENI that can affect and disrupt users and/or others

• Scenario 3: When users (or others) contribute (or associate) resources to (with) experiments on GENI

• Scenario 4: When experiment data involving users is gathered on GENI, and made available to researchers, and possibly others

• Other scenarios?


Opt-in Capabilities

• Have currently identified three basic capabilities that will be required.

• Capability 1: Gateway from GENI to another network, e.g., the Internet

• Capability 2: Contribution (or association) of a user’s node to an experiment on GENI

• Capability 3: Gathering logs and experiment data on GENI, and managing their distribution

• Other capabilities?

Spiral 1 Projects

• Current Spiral 1 projects are focused primarily on providing a capability.

• Capability 1: Gateway from GENI to another network, e.g., the Internet– 1601 Virtual Tunnels– 1650 Regional Opt-In

• Capability 2: Contribution (or association) of a user’s node to an experiment on GENI– 1645 Million Node GENI


continued (2)

• Work towards defining and understanding scenarios is underway.

• Scenario 1: An experiment on GENI that provides a service to users– See Opt-in Workshop report by Craig Partridge.

• Scenario 2: An experiment on GENI that can affect and disrupt users and/or others– Consider experience from PlanetLab, by Larry Peterson.

• Scenario 3: When users contribute (or associate) resources to (with) experiments on GENI– Studied as part of Spiral 1 project, 1645 Million Node GENI.


Current Opt-in Issues and Tasks

• Scenario list:– Review, and affirm or change.

• For each scenario:– Formulate in more detail, and sub-divide as needed.– Understand the players, their relationships and their

motivations.– Formulate proposed policies and best practices.– Clearly identify and define key issues.– Determine required capabilities.– Reference current implementations, research and

projects. • Who in WG wants to contribute?


continued (2)

• Capability list:– Review, and affirm or change.

• For each capability:– Formulate in more detail, and sub-divide as needed.– Formulate requirements.– Suggest design approaches.– Reference current implementations, research and

projects.• Who in WG wants to contribute?


Planned Opt-in Documents

• Architecture:– Opt-in Architecture, v1 DRAFT due 3/1/09

• Scenarios?• Capabilities?• References?• Who in WG wants to be an author? Editor? • Who in WG wants to be an editor?• Who in WG wants to be a reviewer?
