Task 11 - Deployment and Integration of Middleware and APIs
Task Leader: </TBA>
Definition
The project proposal includes an objective to take network services
up to the applications layer in some form. This task is to investigate
and pilot suitable mechanisms for doing this.
The task is open ended, and may extend to any level of complexity
(including dynamic allocation) as time and resources permit. It
is not envisaged that applications would be able to set code points
directly, rather that some indirection is provided where an application
requests a service from some broker which itself has the right
to negotiate with the netowrk.
It could also start from and directions to be proposed by collaboration
members, and J.Crowcroft has already made suggestions in this
direction.
It could use the GARA work which has been done in the Globus
context (Volker Sandler – well known to CISCO). As understood
so far this provides access via APIs to resource reservation,
and was based around CISCO routers.
