- parts: planetlab central (PLC) and planetlab nodes. Geni consists of the\r
- Registry, Slice, and Component Management interfaces. PLC and Planetlab\r
- Nodes can be mapped into the Geni Registry and Geni Component\r
- interfaces respectively. However, due to the nature of\r
- planetlab, the Geni slice interface overlaps with PLC and\r
- planetlab nodes. For example, PLC takes an active role in managing state on\r
- planetlab nodes, and therefore some Geni component state exists on PLC,\r
- leading to some slice interface APIs to exist on PLC.\r
+ parts: planetlab central (PLC) and planetlab nodes. Geni defines three \r
+ interfaces: Registry, Slice, and Component Management. A part of the wrapper is co-located with PLC (it exports the Registry and Slice interfaces),\r
+ and a part of the wrapper is co-located with each node (it exports the Slice\r
+ and Management interfaces).
