D4.4: Execution of experiments, analysis of results and benchmarking against KPIs

This deliverable detailes the experimentation efforts undertaken in ARCFIRE. It encompasses 5 Experiments, each investigating aspects of the converged operator scenario set up by WP2. The first experiment investigated the differences between a RINA and an evolutionary 5G network in terms of management complexity, targeting configuration management deploying a new service. This experiment shows that

D3.2 Final integrated software: RINA stack; Management System and measurement framework

This document reports on the updates to the RINA implementations and related software that were necessary to enable ARCFIRE large-scale experimentations, starting from the status of the implementation as described in D3.1. The resulting final software suite is able to support networks with hundreds of nodes, thousand of active flows, and several layers of stacked

RINA Workshop 2018 report

Since the early workshops, RINA-based technology has matured significantly over the past few years. There are multiple RINA stack implementations, prototypes of all the key value propositions, fully operational testbeds and test traffic generators, hackathon examples of engaged developers, and clear use cases with immediate industrial application. There are demos of how to transport RINA

Last week ARCFIRE researchers presented and demoed Rumba at the Infocom CNERT workshop. The presentation was done after the an excellent keynote on “The Art and Science of Testbed Experimentation“, which complained about the lack of automation in experimental research. This was an excellent precedent for discussing Rumba, which automates deployment, execution and monitoring of RINA experiments in a

Slides of RINA tutorial @ Telefonica

As part of the activities that took place during the ARCFIRE F2F meeting in Madrid organized by Telefonica, ARCFIRE representatives delivered a RINA tutorial to interested Telefonica employees. The tutorial, scoped within Telefonica’s internal training programme, was designed to introduce RINA to groups of Telefonica that were not previously aware of it but that may benefit from

Bringing RINA on the stage: demos at EWSN’18

Nextworks R&D team has participated to the International Conference on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks (EWSN), organized by IMDEA Networks and Univ. Carlos III Madrid from 14-16 February 2018. The conference is a highly selective single-track international conference focusing on premier research results at the intersection of embedded systems and wireless networking – an area of

ARCFIRE paper on Rumba accepted @ IEEE Infocom CNERT

A paper describing Rumba – the RINA experimentation automation framework – entitled  “Rumba: a Python Framework for AutomatingLarge-Scale Recursive Internet Experiments on GENI and FIRE+” has been accepted for presentation at the IEEE Infocom 2018 Workshop on CNERT (Computer and Network Experimental Research using Testbeds) in Hawai.  Congratulations to the iMec and Nextworks ARCFIRE teams!!
