2. As a basic enabler of our modern society, road vehicle transportation has become a major source of societal concerns. Question: how to evaluate ideas and protocols in Vehicular Network ? Cooperative vehicle safety system Smart traffic Traffic collision Air pollution from cars Cooperative driving and vehicle platooning Energy efficiency Low-carbon life Hybrid car Traffic jam Individual, passive behavior Cooperative, active behavior

3. System Architecture Objectives: To enable evaluating Vehicular Sensing and Control (VSC ) networking solutions in a wide range of scenarios and at scale To bridge the GENI and VSC research as well as application communities for self-sustaining GENI development To evaluate the design and implementation of GENI

4. State-of-the-art of evaluation methods: Simulators: Vanetmobisim, Groovenet, Sumo, PTV VISSIM, PARAMICS Test beds: Car2Car,DRIVE, Fleetnet, PATH, TELCO Constrains: Feasibility Scalability Accessibility Vehicles remain black-boxes to researchers and application developers. ?

5. Design & main contribution An open research infrastructure developed on vehicular networks with the integration of GENI resources (e.g., GENI rack, GENI Backbone, WiMAX) Resource virtualization Allocate the resources to different experiments or applications In-field vehicle internal state sensing and surrounding condition sensing Leverage openxc box and camera to sense Simultaneous operation of real-world applications and experiments Fuel economy, link properties study, vehicle detection and location Parallel, distributed emulations on GENI racks with realistic sensing data Fed by real-world traffic to help improve the physical-layer model, emulation, and protocol evaluation at scale

6. Key Technology Resource virtualization Serve different users with resource isolation and management • VSC Networking emulation with GENI racks • Use the real-time traffic and archival of real-world vehicle behavior to enable and high-fidelity, at-scale evaluation of networked VSC solutions

7. Demo Night • Network constraints: • the VSC platform should be within the coverage of the WiMAX network • One question: • What will happen if it is out of the WiMAX network.

8. Plenary Demo Once the WiMAX network is unreachable, the data will be sent to the VM on the InstaGENI rack through the Wirover box.

10. Current & future Current status System development Develop prototype of VSC platform Collect preliminary data Build applications and conduct experiments Tomorrow of the VSC Networking Platform Optimization and improvement Develop useful tools to facilitate operations and applications Note: this demo helps illustrate the capability of VSC platform. However, its capabilities are not limited at this level. It is under continuous development.
