PlanetLab and its Applicability

چکیده
Today’s Information Technology (IT) organizations face significant challenges in delivering business value in these times of rapid architectural evolution as well as challenges in their ability to manage, provision, trust, and integrate the various elements of IT systems. An important aspect of these challenges is the impact IT has on the user and the user’s interaction with IT systems. Through a systems view of IT, Intel’s Information Services and Technology Group (ISTG) proposes a new direction for future capabilities within the IT enterprise. We present a layered taxonomy of capabilities common to IT systems and promote areas for breakthrough research that will enable the proactive enterprise.

Current Information Technology (IT) models for security, content distribution, network and systems management, and provisioning do not match the level of complexity and flexibility required by today’s enterprise. Private enterprises increasingly need to deal with internal security threats the same way as they deal with external security threats. Increasing mobility and globalization demand that...
متن کاملOperating System Support for Planetary-Scale Network Services
PlanetLab is a geographically distributed overlay network designed to support the evaluation and deployment of planetary-scale network services. Two high-level goals shape its design. First, to enable a large research community to share the infrastructure, PlanetLab provides distributed virtualization, whereby each service runs in an isolated slice of PlanetLab’s global resources. Second, to su...

متن کاملIntegration of OMF-Based Testbeds in a Global-Scale Networking Facility
PlanetLab is a global scale platform for experimentation of new networking applications in a real environment. It consists of several nodes, offered by academic institutions or companies spread all over the world, that can be shared by the networking community for its tests. The main drawback of PlanetLab is its scarce heterogeneity in terms of the access technologies it offers. In this paper w...
متن کاملSemester Thesis PlanetLab Tests
In this thesis, we present an approach to perform measurements in the worldwide research network PlanetLab. We describe a framework for developing and deploying Java applications on PlanetLab and show how it can be used to develop data gathering applications. In particular, we implement a latency and a bandwidth test of which we also present some ndings derived from its analyses.
