提案#：CNS07-23248PI(S)：Lepreau，Jay Corbato，Steven C.机构：犹他州盐湖城大学，UT 84112-8930标题：磁共振/开发：高级分布式测试的演进开发项目建议：该项目开发高级分布式测试床，旨在从几个现有基础设施项目中获取最佳软件组件，添加缺失的部分，将它们集成到一个连贯的整体上，部署在选定的硬件和网络连接上，并快速构建高级实验设施的早期但完全功能的版本，称为NewLab。这项工作分三个阶段进行。提供早期但广泛而强大的功能，将Emulab和PlanetLab的最佳组件集成到一个连贯的整体中；专注于接口和软件模块化，发展更清晰的接口和更多可分离的模块；改进和改进选定的组件，调整以获得更好的性能。广泛的影响：TestBed为研究人员和学生提供了丰富的实验网络设施、用于控制它的集成且功能强大的实验管理，以及有关组件和界面的工程和架构课，以用于TestBed和实验管理。

Proposal #: CNS 07-23248PI(s): Lepreau, Jay Corbato, Steven C.Institution: University of Utah Salt Lake City, UT 84112-8930Title: MRI/Dev.: Evolutionary Development of an Advanced Distributed TestbedProject Proposed:This project, developing an advanced distributed testbed, aims to take the best software components from several existing infrastructure projects, add missing pieces, integrate them into a coherent whole, deploy on selected hardware and network connections, and quickly build an early, but fully functional version of an advanced experimental facility, called NewLab. The work evolves in three phases that. Provide early but broad and powerful function, where the best components of Emulab and PlanetLab are integrated into a coherent whole;. Focus on interfaces and software modularity, evolving cleaner interfaces and more separable modules;. Refine, and improve selected components, tuning for better performance.Broader Impacts: The testbed provides researchers and students with a rich experimental network facility, an integrated and powerful experimental management to control it, and engineering and architectural lessons on components and interfaces for testbed and experiment management.
