This document outlines the agenda, problem space, draft charter, goals, milestones, and relationship to other working groups for the Appliance Aggregation and Architecture research group meeting. The meeting aims to discuss appliance aggregation in the context of grid computing and explore the challenges and opportunities in this field.
E N D
Appliance Aggregation Architecture (appagg)The First Research Group Meeting Milan Milenkovic and Dejan Milojicic GGF6, Chicago, October 2002
Agenda • Brief introduction by Milan & Dejan (10 min) • A view of appliance aggregation and grid - Milan Milenkovic (30 min) • Discussion (50 min) • group charter and focus • desktop v. personal appliances aggregation similarities and differences • work plan and deliverables
Problem Space and Distinction • Ad-hoc aggregation of wireless appliances • Appliances in locale • Personal: handheld, laptop, tablet, etc. • Consumer: phone, camera, watches, etc. • Environment: display, U/I, surrogate, etc. • We do not address • sensors, embedded in general sense • grids in general: distributed comp., data share • geographically distributed
Draft Charter, Definition • Complements other Grid RGs & WGs address client side appliances • Addresses appliances from perspective of • Aggregation: discovery, identity, security, com • Personal use: trust, HCI, apps, disconnection • Environment: scalability, power, ambience • Three perspectives tied in by • wireless, ad-hoc, and pervasive deployment
Draft Charter, Structure • Chairs • Milan Milenkovic, appliance grid • Dejan Milojicic, personal appliances grid • Secretary • Dimitris Lioupis, • Web Site: www.hpl.hp.com/hosted/ggf
Draft Charter, Goals • Link GGF to pervasive, ad-hoc & appliances • Devise architecture for appliance aggregation • Encourage info & code sharing by proposing strategies for interoperability • Process for researchers & developers to exchange results and contribute to community • Identify future areas of research important to continuing advance of Grids • HCI requirements for future appliances in ubiquitous environments
Draft Charter, Milestones • Agree upon the charter and establish the plan (October 2002, at GGF6) • Current practices (+12 months) • Staged architecture (+12, 24, 36 months) • Standards (+36 months) • Working prototypes (+6-36 months)
Milestones, Current Practices(next 6-12 months) • Terminology (Milan & Dejan) • common terms related to appliances & Grid • relate p2p, Grids, appliances, pervasive & embedded computing • Survey (Ian Taylor) • survey the field of appliances aggregation • compare grid & p2p related to aggregation • survey & compare a few of case studies • Use cases (Dimitris Lioupis) • Public relations
Milestones, Staged Architecture(next 12, 14, 36 months) • High Level Architecture • Define vision, use cases, functional and non-functional requirements, principles, conceptual architecture, guidelines, etc. • Evolve over the time, with specific design details coming to bear at later phases
Milestones, Standards(next 36 months) • Guidelines towards standardization of the appliance aggregation architecture • Cross platform aggregation (by different vendors) • Specify interfaces & functionality required of different levels of aggregation of appliances • E.g. ownership, state, applications, functionality
Relationship to other WG/RG • Other p2p RGs • Desktop and consumer Grids • OGSAp2p • eGrid • Other GGF • Advanced Collaborative Environments • Applications & Test Beds • Grid Computing Environments (GCE-RG) • Grid User Services (GUS-RG) • Discovery & Monitoring Event Description • Grid Protocol Architecture (GPA)
