21. Others Collaborations Topics
1.OF@TEIN Remote Operation (NUST Pakistan &
Chula Thailand)
2.Multi-path Video Streaming with OpenFlow 1.3
(GIST Korea – Chula Thailand)
3.End-to-end Connectivity Measurement for
Visibility (GIST Korea – NUST Pakistan)

22. Conclusion
• Current effort is “establish OF@TEIN consortium”
and the next effort is “develop a reference model
for OF@TEIN community”
• Building and operating SDN-Cloud-leveraged
open/shared infrastructure
• Share/exchange/mobile programs among partners
and collaborators
• OF@TEIN+ SDN-Cloud and DataFarm facility
