As a side note, I try to get the gni-wg mailing list started as the venue for people to discuss the unified charter. Please get on that mailing list when it is created (hopefully later today). In the notes need to change: - Franco Travostino: Cloud networks use cases. thanks, best regards, cees. At 16:16 +0200 04-06-2008, Freek Dijkstra wrote:
Grid High Performance Networking RG (OGF23) -------------------------------------------
Note-takers: Jeroen van der Ham and Freek Dijkstra
Agenda: - Phosphorus - Sergi Figuerola (i2CAT) - Harmony Demonstration - Joan Antoni García (i2CAT) - Future research topics discussion
No notes on the presentations -- hopefully gridforge is up again, and the slides can be uploaded.
Harmony is the software developed in Phosphorus WP1. Joan showed the GUI, and created connections between Spain and Germany and between Spain and Canada.
Cees de Laat initiated a discussion on the future research topics. There are 4 BOFS in Infrastructure at this OGF. Apparently, networking is moving from research to work group. This is a success for the GHPN. The GHPN should (re)consider its scope.
Suggestions:
- Addressing and naming (in the demo, private IPv4 addresses were used for both. NDL and NML use URI and URNs). - Franco Travostino: Mobile networks. IETF is working on this, but on the other hand OGF would have different use-cases. - Inder Monga: Multi-point to multi-point network services instead of point-to-point links. Cees de Laat gives a short example were the order of two path requests matters if the request is successful or not. The UNI needs to handle combined requests (asking for multiple links in the same request).
Cees proposes to have a mini-workshop at one of the next GHPN meetings to see which tracks have the interest in the community. -- ghpn-wg mailing list ghpn-wg@ogf.org http://www.ogf.org/mailman/listinfo/ghpn-wg
