Plan for the NSF Demo

---

Update: Demo 0 has been cancelled

• Demo 0: Add wireless to Planet Lab experiment
• Demo 1: Integrated Planet Lab- Orbit (Video demo)
• Demo 2: Planet-Lab orbit integration + Virtual AP
• Break
• Demo 3: Virtualization grid Demo
• Demo 4: Splitting a Node (Interfaces)
• Demo 5: Sensor Network Application Demo by Dr. Manish Parashar's group
• Demo 6: TDMA virtualization demo by Dr. Suman Banerjee's group

Demo 4: Splitting a Node (Interfaces)

Motivation

• Show hardware virtualization by assigning full control of one interface to a virtual machine
• Need to add access control in nodehandler for N0/N1 interfaces

Plan

• Run two experiments on one orbit node
• One experiment may communicate to one Planetlab node and one orbit node
  • Topology: Planetlab—Orbit1(AP)—Orbit2(client)
• The second experiment may connect to other Orbit nodes
  • Topology: Orbit(AP)—Orbit(1,2,3)

Status

(George-Jan 22)

• Obtained Xen and UML images from the Suman Banerjee's group
• Contacted Thierry Parmentelat working with OneLab​http://onelab-private.inria.fr/
  • Onelab aims to add these capabilities that do not existing in PlanetLab
    • Use multiple interfaces (wireless & wired)
    • Execute monitoring: passive monitoring and topology info components
    • Waiting for response
• Contacted Aki Nakao
  • Requested copy of Xen Slice (Xlice)
  • Waiting for response

Problems

• None at this point

Demo 5a,5b: Sensor Network Application Demo by Dr. Manish Parashar's group.

Motivation

• Show applications that utilize Orbit and/or Planetlab

Plan

• Show two demonstrations
• a)Data collection from oil wells
• b)Data reduction and aggregation from sensors

Status

(George-Jan 17)

• Provided a preliminary demo
• Working on improving applications and visualization

Problems

• None at this point
