The overall goal of this project is to integrate cyber-physical systems of multimodalities (sensor networks, robots, and PCs) into the GENI global
environment, under ORCA framework.
Develop sensor network testbed based on KanseiGenie
Develop robotics testbed
Design software components for sensor networks and robotics
Integrate all testbeds under ORCA and across sites.

Accomplishments 1:
Advancing GENI Spiral 2 Goals
•
•
•
Created sensor network testbeds in lab and in the field, which will be further
used for next year development and refinement
Created an initial testbed for robotics, which helps us distill requirements and
abstractions to control robots remotely
Sensor networks at two sites (OkSU and UF) are under development, which
can help our research on cross-site sensor networks

Plans
• The second & third year plan
–
–
–
–
Enhance the sensor network testbed under pub/sub framework
Integrate sensor networks into ORCA framework
Integrate robots testbed (iGem) into the ORCA framework
Cross-site integration between OkSU, UF, OhSU, and WSU
• The GPO is starting to formulate goals for Spiral 3. What
are your thoughts regarding potential Spiral 3 work?
– Cross-site integration of cyber-physical system
– Inter-operation among GENI, FutureGrid, and other Cloud
platforms
– Reach out for adopters of our robotics virtual lab and integrated
CPS testbed
