FABRIC: A National-Scale Programmable Experimental Network Infrastructure

Experimental Flux Measurements on a Network Scale

Metabolic flux is a fundamental property of living organisms. In recent years, methods for measuring metabolic flux in plants on a network scale have evolved further. One major challenge in studying flux in plants is the complexity of the plant's metabolism. In particular, in the presence of parallel pathways in multiple cellular compartments, the core of plant central metabolism constitutes a ...

Xweb: A Framework for Application Network Deployment in a Programmable Internet Service Infrastructure

Current programmable Internet service infrastructures permit to activate Internet services on single nodes. Future Internet services, however, will be provided by a set of coordinated servers forming an application network. This work presents a framework for deploying service as application network in a programmable Internet service infrastructure. Our framework consists of four building blocks...

Using Programmable Network Management Techniques to Establish Experimental Networking Testbeds

The way in which research groups evaluate router software (QoS and routing components, for example) seems to be restricted to methodologies using mathematical modelling and simulation techniques. We believe that an experimental methodology is rarely used as the deployment of custom routing software to a testbed comprising multiple routers is a non-trivial task that is beyond the scope of most n...

Realization of a secure active and programmable network infrastructure via mobile agent technology

The deployment of sophisticated telecommunication services poses demanding design and implementation challenges to the underlying infrastructure. The end-goal of more ¯exibility, fault tolerance, quality of services, intelligence, component-based service integration, service personalization, programmability, openness and of course security in a heterogeneous infrastructure can be reasonably ach...
