DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:ABSTRACT: The Global Environment for Network Innovations – GENI – is a suite of =0Aresearch infrastructure, sponsored by the National Science Foundation, =0Athat is rapidly taking shape in prototype form across the United States.=0A=0AGENI provides several capabilities facilitating the development, testing, and deployment of disruptive technology in network security, technologies, services, and =0Aapplications. Two key capabilities are deep programmability and slicability.=0A=0ADeep programmability is the ability for researchers to install their own software deep into GENI, on network devices and computing devices throughout the network, not just at the edges. Deep programmability enables large-scale experiments in future global systems that may or may not be compatible with today’s Internet. =0A=0ASlicability is the capacity to assign a set of physical and/or virtualized heterogenous GENI resources to a given experiment. Multiple experiments run inside different GENI "slices," so that researchers can try out a variety of future internets at the same time.=0A=0AToday’s “meso-scale” GENI prototype spans 14 campuses and 2 national backbones (Internet2 and NLR), with “at scale” growth envisioned to span 100-200 campuses in coming years. Researchers are actively experimenting with future internet designs and protocols across the U.S.=0A=0AThis year, GENI and SCinet are collaborating to connect the SCinet research sandbox (SRS) to the GENI meso-scale prototype, extending the research sandbox across the nation. Several demonstrations highlighting the capabilities of this combined network are planned.
