  2. GENI-in-the Classroom • Prasad Calyam (Missouri) and Jelena Marasevic (Columbia): Experiences using GENI in their classroom last Fall • Prasad – Cloud Computing – Assignments with AWS and GENI • GENI exercises used the GENI OF backbone • Jelena – WiMAX class – Students learn first-hand the vagaries of wireless networks • Overall, students had good learning experiences • Both Prasad and Jelena plan on using GENI again

  3. GENI-in-the-Classroom • Jay, Fraida and Mike building educational resources • Should have a good body of material ready by Fall 2014 • Modules (videos, instructor guides) used by instructor to teach networking concepts • Exercises for students to do • Classroom-as-a-Service: Available now – Email Fraida Fund @ NY Poly • Short networking class for the masses in MOOC format this summer

  4. Experimenter-Developer Roundtable • Invited five advanced experimenters to talk about their experiences using GENI • Stitching, OpenFlow, Resource intensive • Well attended by developers • Common complaints • Problems with losing resources (mostly due to expiration) • Need to start experiment from scratch if something goes wrong: • Can’t replace resources the expired/didn’t come up • Related: Can’t grow experiment • OS images • Standard: Images that are available on all aggregates • Portable: From one aggregate type to another

  5. Tutorials • 11 tutorials, 5 new • Running RINA on GENI • Inter-Aggregate Experiments • Developing SDN applications w/ OpenDaylight • Distributed computing with GENI: Hadoop in a Slice • Train the Admin • Thanks: • Tutorial leaders • Don and Russ for logistics • Network worked very well – made for a good tutorial experience • Printing tutorial instructions • EG and IG teams – watching over resources • More tutorials than any other GEC • Not counting repeated tutorials • Growing diversity of interests and experiences of experimenters • Possible because of the much larger number of racks available

  6. Upcoming Training Opportunities • Tutorial slides and instructions online • Do try them at home • GENI Tutorial at SIGCOMM 2014 – August 2014 • GENI Summer Camp @ Iowa State U. • Probably last week of May (starting Wed after Memorial Day) • Join the geni-users Google Group • Ask questions, support fellow experimenters
