Agenda 1. Scope of the WP 2. Mm distribution 3. The WP plan 4. Objectives 5. Deliverables 6. Deadlines 7. Partners Responsibilities distribution 8. Extra needs identified or topics to be discussed and approved by the whole team.

Scope of the WP MANTYCHORE-GSN collaboration has the objective to design necessary experiments and tests which eventually check the viability of this movement of services (virtual machines (VMs), flexible device configuration utilities, etc...). What are the Tests? ( Experiments, demos or more) Are all features identified with a plan for availability

Mm Distribution Participants: Months – i2CAT, 5 – HEAnet, 2.5 – NORDUnet, 5.0 – TID 2.5 Leader HEAnet Task 1 Start: M7, Apr 2011 End: M25Oct 2012 Task 2 Start: M17, Feb 2012 End: M25Oct 2012 => Terena 2012 – CANARIE and others already running demos

Role of Partners i2CAT T7.1 will contribute on performing the integration between GSN and MANTYCHORE (physical integration between the GSN and the NRENs infrastructure and also the services integration). In T7.2 i2CAT will participate in implementing the necessary algorithms and mechanisms to integrate the Zero-carbon emissions virtual infrastructures into MANTYCHORE services.

Role of Partners HEAnet HEAnet is leading and coordinating this activity. T7.2 being responsible for the joint experimenting on moving virtual resources based on renewable energy availability. – Modifying the GEANT Stitching Framework is their responsible and should highlight the most relevant parameters and the interaction of their attributes to assist in the physical implementations. – HEAnet will also contribute in T7.1 contributing to the physical integration between MANTYCHORE and GSN infrastructures

Role of Partners NORDUnet Leads T7.1 In T7.1 NORDUnet will focus in performing the physical integration between MANTYCHORE and GSN infrastructures and also the services integration. Finally, in T7.2 NORDUnet will be the responsible for ensuring that the algorithms are optimised to perform network migrations.

Role of Partners TID TID will contribute in T7.1 offering part of its infrastructure to integrate MANTYCHORE and GSN. TID will also contribute in T7.2 performing some experiments over part of its infrastructure to ensure that the migration of entire virtual networks works correctly.

The WP plan Determine Energy Expense for each nodes components Details of Current Addressing plan Details of Layer 3 Addressing Plan work out address ranges Plans for testing network connectivity Matrix of all hardware being used by each NREN – Determine if this is selected to match CANARIE suggestion – How does it reflect deployments in Current Networks – How will deliverables for this work tie in with Mantychore Deliverables

The WP plan 2 Need to work out or see plans of proposed work by GSN Need to establish schedule delivery dates from GSN Establish common interface strategies which tie to software deliverables Need to agree task assignments and have buy-in from all participants and their team Leaders Plan Deployments of Nodes Plan Testing stages Check to see that this aligns with Total Project

Objectives Goals to achieve within this task are: Search and design algorithms which will select different policies and an optimised set of options Every MANTYCHORE device has an energy expense will be measured using different techniques. This subtask will search different possibilities to study the electrical consumption of each device and to integrate measuring and reporting algorithms into the MANTYCHORE application. Time is an important dimension in making energy measurements, which will require data capture, logging and historical analysis and comparison features Different options for migrating services are evaluated by conducting trials and experiments to highlight the full capability of these services. GSN will profit from MANTYCHORE’s architecture to increase the flexibility of testing and modelling services. The GEANT Stitching Framework [54] will be extended to characterise and highlight the attributes and energy consumption parameters to allow for easier integration into emerging solutions.

Deliverables 7.1 Integration between MANTYCHORE and GSN report: This deliverable will provide all relevant information related with the new installed resources. It includes all the information to the connection between MANTYCHORE-GSN including information about physical and software components. It is intended to be the comprehensive reference for building MANTYCHORE-GSN infrastructure [month 16]

Deliverables 7.2 Definition of Teams interpretation of Zero Carbon Month 3 Networks migration tests report: All experimental algorithms are presented in this deliverable, which details all the algorithms evaluated. Final experimental conclusions will show the viability of those algorithms selected. As each algorithm is described, full details of implementation features, and their interaction are fully explained (of both the optimal and other algorithms which were researched). [month 25] => Multiple Iterations of Document  Need agreement of Content & Schedule for each Iteration.
