NeTS-FIND: An Architecture for a Diversified Internet

该项目探讨了将虚拟化作为新的互联网架构的核心组件的含义，明确的目标是鼓励端到端网络的多样性。该项目探讨了如何将虚拟化集成到互联网架构中，以及如何由多个合作组织大规模交付，并以足够高的性能使其在经济上具有吸引力。该项目的活动包括为一个多元化的互联网开发一个完整的架构，并对该架构的主要组件进行实验演示。该项目还通过开发和演示在这个多元化的互联网中运行的两个完整的端到端网络来探索如何有效地使用这些机制。多样化的互联网有可能对整个社会产生广泛的影响，因为它可以创造一个更具竞争力的环境，使先进网络服务的创新能够蓬勃发展。

This project explores the implications of making virtualization a central component of a new Internet architecture, with the explicit objective of encouraging a diversity of end-to-end networks. The project explores how virtualization can be integrated into the Internet architecture and how it can be delivered, by multiple cooperating organizations, on a large scale and with sufficiently high performance to make it economically compelling. The project activities include development of a complete architecture for a diversified Internet and experimental demonstration of major components of that architecture.The project also explores how these mechanisms can be effectively used, by developing and demonstrating two complete end-to-end networks that operate within this diversified Internet. A diversified Internet has the potential to have a broad impact on society at large, by enabling a more competitive environment in which innovation on advanced network services can flourish.
