Objective 7.1 The main goal of this task is to setup a GSN node that will allow access from varied NREN infrastructures to the GSN network. (Start: M1, End: M15, Leader HEAnet) To achieve this subtasks are required to carry out:  Analysis of different possibilities to connect the two infrastructures. Complete  Integration of MANTYCHORE physical resources in GSN.  It includes all the process of installation of a connection MANTYCHORE-GSN. GSN project finished  To specify requirement and planning of the software integration. It is necessary understand and specify how MANTYCHORE and GSN services will be able to collaborate. Complete  MANTYCHORE services provide facilities to configure routers and interfaces give flexibility thanks to its IaaS architecture and give a management of logical devices.

Objectives T7.2 T7.2 Information model and API implementation between MANTYCHORE and GSN (Start: M17, End: M28, Leader HEAnet)  Identify possible application of GSN algorithms, with different policies and an optimised set of options, to the MANTYCHORE green services. Complete  Identify a common green energy information model with a common API that allows the establishment of specific policies for establishing connectivity paths, with green energy constrains, across the whole infrastructures. Complete  Every MANTYCHORE device has an energy expense will be measured using different techniques. This subtask searched different possibilities to study the electrical consumption of each device and to integrate this information into the MANTYCHORE service application. Complete  Different options for connectivity services were evaluated by conducting trials and experiments to highlight the full capability of these services. Complete  The GEANT Stitching Framework was used to consider as an option to characterise and highlight the attributes and energy consumption parameters to allow for easier integration into emerging solutions.

Deviations from the Original Plan D7.2 Networks and services interconnection between MANTYCHORE and GSN (R/P, PU, M25)  The implementation of the MANTYCHORE and GSN compliant green energy information model and its associated API, will be tested and validated. This information model will improve the performance of current services provisioning algorithms, since energy constrains will be considered together with the network constrains. Complete  Final experimental conclusions will show that both infrastructures can requests connectivity services between them while maintaining green energy information updates of the resources involved. Algorithms defined within the GSN testbed will be assessed within the MANTYCHORE infrastructure.. Complete WP7 Zero-carbon emission virtual infrastructures5June 26th 2013

Concept and Objectives I  Mantychore started collaboration with GSN (GreenStar Network) project for the integration of its NREN infrastructures where the GSN network is formed by a set of green nodes with each node powered by sun, wind or other renewable energy sources.  The GSN Carbon Measurement Protocol is used for GSN to measure the quantity of energy and carbon emissions permitted in these nodes.  The NREN infrastructure will be connected to the GSN network and it will add new resources, as Mantychore resources.  Currently Mantychore features allow new possibilities to solve different issues in configuration, provisioning, testing, and will be enhanced for monitoring power.  Generate carbon credits from the reduction of carbon resulting from relocation different network resources among networks and test beds. Relocation of these resources could possibly save tons of carbon per year. 16 WP7 Zero-carbon emission virtual infrastructures June 25th 2013

Concept and Objectives 2 Benefits of the proposed User case studies are. The location of the consortium and its distance from other sources such as the GSN test-bed from Canada and Mantychore infrastructure at Europe added a new user case to this project. This analyzes how it is possible to move services to computing or networking resources and why its situation and location can influence that choice. To collaborate to research and create cloud management algorithms making optimal use of the intermittently-available renewable energy sources. The viability and usefulness which will be measured by the degree to which the renewable energy sources can be utilized. This usefulness will be checked in the different use cases and will specify the best options to reduce emissions and energy. Workflow and processes will be transparent for end users. For an end user, his transferred service will work continuously without any problem. WP7 Zero-carbon emission virtual infrastructures 17 March 29th 2012
