Approaches for creating infrastructures for network and Internet innovations

The aim of the present work is to consider the different options for building of test platforms (testbeds) for innovative research mainly on the next generation Internet. Test platforms for next generation networks in various related projects are considered: PlanetLab, Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI), FIRE (Future Internet Research and Experimentation), FEDERICA, OneLab2, PANLAB, PII ( Panlab II, WISEBED. The results are related to obtaining summary information about the structures and features of the operation of the test platforms. Contributions to the work are the in-depth analysis of the features of building, virtualization, division and provision of shared resources, as well as the ways of unification (federation) and management of test platforms.

Measurement-based research

In this paper, we report the results of the workshop organized by the FP7 EULER project on measurement-based research and associated methodology, experiments and tools. This workshop aimed at gathering all Future Internet Research and Experimentation (FIRE) experimental research projects under this thematic. Participants were invited to present the usage of measurement techniques in their experiments, their developments on measurement tools, and their foreseeable needs with respect to new domains of research not currently addressed by existing measurement techniques and tools.
