Collaborative Research: GENI Working Group Meetings - Substrate

Substrate工作组是推动技术工作的五个工作组之一，旨在开发一套实验性网络基础设施的架构和设计，目前正处于规划阶段。工作组每年举办三次研讨会，持续开展以下工作：1）确定和解决设计问题; 2）确定技术风险领域; 3）审查GENI项目办公室编写的文件; 4）开展外联活动。通过一个开放、透明、管理良好的设计过程，社区将有充分的机会对一套实验性网络基础设施的设计发表评论和做出贡献。 在设计过程的早期让社区参与进来将确保基础设施具有研究社区所需的功能和能力。讲习班的主题将包括：例如，详细的开放式设计问题和权衡、风险评估和缓解、通用词汇表和模型、设计和集成活动、用例以及软件和服务的评估。主席将负责研讨会的准备、主持研讨会、结果传播和进度报告。这些资金将使主席能够招募与会者，参加三个讲习班，并传播成果。

The Substrate Working Group is one of five Working Gropus driving the technical work to develop the architecture and design of a suite of experimental network infrastructure that is currently in its planning stages. The working groups hold three workshops each year that, on a continuing basis: 1) identify and resolve design issues, 2) identify areas of technical risk, 3) review documents prepared by the GENI Project Office, and 4) engage in outreach. By having an open, transparent, well-managed design process, the community will have ample opportunities to comment and contribute to the design of a suite of experimental network infrastructure. Engaging the community early in the design process will ensure that the infrastructure will have the functionality and capabilities required by the research community. Workshop topics will include: detailed open design issues and tradeoffs, risk assessment and mitigation, common vocabulary and models, design and integration activities, use cases, and the evaluation of software and services, for example.The chairs will be responsible for workshop preparation, chairing workshops, results dissemination, and progress reporting. These funds will enable the chairs to recruit attendees, attend three workshops, and disseminate the results.
