    A growing number of scientific fields require the ability to analyze data in near real-time, so that results from one experiment can guide selection of the next—or even influence the course of a single experiment. The experiments are often tightly scheduled, with timing driven by factors ranging from the physical processes involved in an experiment to the travel schedules of on-site...

    Modern data-centric applications are among the major
    drives for next generation Internet and network infrastructure
    innovation. These applications, often founded in broad societal
    challenges such as overpopulation and diminishing natural
    resources, cut across many different scientific domains and
    require collection, transfer, and processing capabilities on data
    from broad range of...

    With the ever growing complexity of networks, researchers have to rely on test-beds to be able to fully assess the quality of their propositions. In the meanwhile, Mininet offers a simple yet powerful API, the goldilocks of network emulators. We advocate that the Mininet API is the right level of abstraction for network experiments. Unfortunately it is designed to be run on a single machine....

    Position Statement

    Network Function Virtualization (NFV), coupled with Software Defined Networking (SDN),
    promises to revolutionize networking by allowing network operators to dynamically modify and
    manage networks. Operators can create, update, remove or scale out/in network functions (NFs)
    on demand, construct a sequence of NFs to form a so-called service function chain (SFC) and
    steer traffic through it...

    Position Statement

    Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) or drone systems equipped with cameras are extensively used in different surveillance scenarios and often require real-time control and high-quality video transmission. However, unstable network situations and various transport protocols may result in impairments during video streaming, which in turn negatively impacts user’s quality of experience (QoE). In this...

    Position Statement

    Increased ubiquity of sensing via smart devices and IoT devices in smart homes and smart healthcare domains, for example, has caused a surge in sensitive and personal data generation and use from browsing habits to purchasing patterns to real-time location to personal health information. Unfortunately, our ability to collect and process data has overwhelmed our ability to protect that...

    Position Statement

    Computational science today depends on complex, data-intensive applications operating on datasets from
    a variety of scientific instruments. A major challenge is the integration of data into the scientist's workflow.
    Recent advances in dynamic, networked cloud resources provide the building blocks to construct
    reconfigurable, end-to-end infrastructure that can increase scientific...

    Position Statement

    Cloud testbeds are critical for enabling research into new cloud technologies - research that
    requires experiments which potentially change the operation of the cloud itself. Several such
    testbeds have been created in recent past (e.g., Chameleon, CloudLab, etc.) with the goal to
    support the CISE systems research community. It has been shown that these testbeds are very
    popular and heavily...

    Position Statement

    Computer Science experimental testbeds allow investigators to explore a broad
    range of different state-of-the-art hardware options, assess scalability of their
    systems, and provide conditions that allow deep reconfigurability and isolation so
    that one user does not impact the experiments of another. Although the primary
    purpose of those testbeds is to provide resources to users who would...

    Position Statement

    Reproducibilification, i.e., making experiments reproducible, is the
    ultimate goal for successful scientific experiments. In this work, we
    identify key challenges for the design of reproducible network experiments.
    We present our approach for reproducible network research
    which enforces an experiment workflow leading to inherently replicable
    network experiments. Our approach realized in...

  60. Dr Izzat Izzat Alsmadi

    Humans lived for centuries with limited methods of communication. While the Internet, smart phones and Online Social Networks (OSNs) dissolve location and all other barriers exist between humans for centuries, attackers’ minds evolve rapidly to accommodate and fully utilize those technologies. There is a need for security defense mindsets to evolve also to fully utilize those same...

    Position Statement

    Testbeds such as Cloudlab, Chameleon, VirtualWall or Grid’5000 provide a collection of system images (appliances) to experiments. This is an important part of testbeds’ offerings, because it is part of what makes it possible for experimenters to perform experiments in an environment that meets their needs: recent software, or a linux distribution that is supported by the software they want to...

    Position Statement

    Developing a skilled diverse workforce with the knowledge to protect our future critical infrastructure (i.e., power grids, transportation, water, gas and oil, and other systems) is a serious challenge because of its complexity and high demand for specialized workforce skill set normally taught at a few academic institutions.
    Thus, there is gap between disruptive and innovative technologies...

    In this talk, we will describe the software-defined infrastructure and the corresponding orchestrator deployed at RNP, the Brazilian NREN. This infrastructure is composed by a completely virtualizable SDN Overlay Network and a two-tier private cloud. The orchestrator is based on ONOS and it is responsible for the lifecycle management of virtual resources such as SDN/L2 software switches,...

    Experimental networking research needs have probably not changed much from the time the NSF Workshop Network Research Testbeds took place in 20021. So, it would be worth revisiting the outcomes of that workshop with the current context. In this sense, this paper tries to do this for some of the items dealt with in the report generated (e.g., Multi-user experimental facilities, federated...

    The increasing data processing and networking demand of
    emerging applications plays an important role in the design
    and implementation of novel computing infrastructures of
    today and tomorrow. New technologies, including big data,
    deep learning, as well as Internet-of-Things (IoT) and 5G/6G
    networks, are ushering in a new era of rapid transformation with
    ubiquitous connectivity and...
