Jacques Magen - Future Internet Research and Experimentation (FIRE): Successful Experiments Overview

Future Internet Research and Experimentation – FIRE Successful Experiments Overview FIA Ghent, 17 December 2010 Jacques Magen FIRESTATION [email_address] www.ict-fire.eu

FIRE has two interrelated dimensions: Experimentally-driven long-term, visionary research on new paradigms and networking concepts and architectures for the future internet FIRE Research FIRE Experimental Facility www.ict-fire.eu Building large-scale experimentation facilities to support both medium- and long- term research on networks and services by gradually federating existing and new testbeds for emerging or future internet technologies FIRE: Future Internet Research and Experimentation Requirements Validation Research Large Scale Experiments

FIRE Projects PlanetLab (OneLab2) Cognitive radio (CREW) Open Flow (OFELIA) IMS (PII) Services on Clouds/Grids (BonFIRE, TEFIS) Internet of Things (WISEBED, SmartSantander) Core network (FEDERICA) FIRE experimental Facilities: ECODE PERIMETER N4C Smart - Net Self-Net Vital ++ Resume-Net Nanodatacenters OPNEX DTN Smart Antennas Self Mngt . P2P / IMS Network Resilience Edge Infrastructure User centric Cognitive routing Multi-hop wireless LAWA CONECT CONVERGENCE EULER HOBNET NOVI SCAMPI SPITFIRE Large-scale data Flexible radio Content centric Routing Smart buildings Virtual infra . Services on opport. networks Internet of things

FEDERICA has been used for experimenting with a multi-domain, multivendor network resource brokering system (called “Harmony”) Use Cases of existing FIRE facilities (1) OneLab2 has been used for experimenting with a distributed (over 50 sites) overlay routing system for a wide variety of network applications ranging from routing to peer-to-peer file sharing (called “Egoist”)

WISEBED has been used for experimenting with two physically distant sensor networks that were combined into one single virtual network Use Cases of existing FIRE facilities (2) Panlab – PII has been used for experimenting with end-to-end self-management in a wireless Internet environment, adaptive admission control and resource allocation algorithms, and enhanced Web TV services over mobile phones

BonFIRE is open for experiments that pose state-of-the-art research challenges in Cloud Computing. For example: Dynamic Service Landscape Orchestration for an Internet of Services QoS-Oriented Service Engineering for Federated Clouds Elasticity Requirement for Cloud Based Applications CREW has 4 wireless testbeds across Europe, with advanced spectrum sensing solutions. These can be combined to allow industry and academia to evaluate wireless protocols and/or hardware in a controlled environment OFELIA has 5 testbeds across Europe that create a distributed OpenFlow infrastructure of multi-layer and multi-technology. The experimental facility will offer access to diverse technologies, including Ethernet, optical and wireless domains. The islands are connected by multiple 1GE links to the GEANT network Use Cases of new FIRE facilities (2a)

SmartSantander has a unique city-scale experimental research facility that supports typical sensor (IoT) applications and services for a smart city TEFIS has a Web portal that provides a single access point to different testing and experimental facilities. Initially, the TEFIS platform integrates 7 complementary experimental facilities, including network and software testing facilities An example of a typical Use Case is a large scale SOA application for a huge travel-business eCommerce platform accessible both from Websites and Web Services “ Use Cases” of new FIRE facilities (2b)

Example of testbeds (1) Experiment 1: Dynamic Composition of Network Functions Function Chain @A  Network situation @C  @D Application Constraints Algorithm under test: On-demand composition of functions in the network (e.g. transcoding, caching, encryption, ..) based on application constraints and network situation PT A PT B PT C PT D

Experiment 2: Multipath Routing (Project MultiNext ) Example of testbeds (2) S R Multipath application Multipath application Multipath Routing Research Model for Buffer-Adjustment at Receiver Experiment Goal: Model verification in real environment Requirements similar to Experiment 1 Routing Infrastructure Heterogeneity: Paths with very different delays Delay information for the different paths

Back-up slides FIRE Experimental Facilities

An open federated laboratory supporting network research for the future Internet Objectives: OneLab2 partners operate PlanetLab Europe (PLE), extend the PlanetLab service across Europe, and federate with other PlanetLab infrastructures worldwide. Their federation model enables PLE to be the basis for a future highly heterogeneous communications environment The project provides an open, general-purpose, shared experimental facility, which is both large-scale and sustainable . It allows European industry and academia to innovate and assess the performance of their solutions The project also integrates new features and technologies into the system. In particular, a network monitoring service that supports experiments www.onelab.eu OneLab

Pan-European Laboratory Infrastructure Implementation Objectives: PanLab - PII manages the interconnection of different distributed testbeds to provide services to customers for various kind of testing PanLab - PII has a repository that stores testbed descriptions and testing results PanLab - PII has a search and composition engine “Teagle” for mapping user requests to testbed resources and is being enhanced to automatically configure network resources in accordance with user requests www.panlab.net PanLab
