Existing Infrastructure  DOME consists of DieselNet: 40 equipped public transit buses Amherst Mesh: 26+ APs Open third-party APs A large potential user base Not part of GENI: ○ TurtleNet ○ Solar-powered Throwbox relays ○ Bus cameras

DieselNet 4 Each public transit bus is equipped with a small computer (1GB, 60GB), b AP, g PCI, XTend 900Mhz radio, 3G modem, and GPS.

Amherst Mesh  Amherst Mesh 15+ Mesh nodes 11+ Aps Separate VLAN Commercial packet logger Managed by Town IT dept.  Open APs

A Well-tested Testbed  Operational since May 2004  Working relationships with Transit and Town  14 papers published based on testbed experiments e.g., Mobicom, Mobisys, Mobihoc, Sigcomm, Infocom  6 traces of testbed operation available ○  Live web tracking of bus locations  Platform…

GENI Interactions  Major Framework Goals Disconnected operation / weakly connected env. Pre-staging of virtual machines/experiments  Primary extra-cluster project interactions Albrecht’s GUSH Gruteser’s Orbit Vehicles Opt-In WG GaTech DARPA/NETS partner; MSR VanLan  6–12 months out Virtual machine staging; Atheros PCI control Interface to ORCA

Summary  Cluster D ORCA framework team  Vehicular network and public mesh  Virtual machine operation on each bus  Connections to other buses, mesh nodes, public/open APs; 3G backbone  Connections to several other projects  Virtualization demo in month 6.
