The MySlice Software: A ready-made and easily customizable user interface for your testbed

+

+ MySlice is an ambitious project aimed at supporting users and assisting them throughout the lifecycle of their experiments. + The MySlice software includes a web front-end as well as a backend called Manifold. Manifold is a component allowing the integration + of distributed and heterogeneous data sources, such as measurement platforms or data repositories. +

- MySlice is an ambitious project aiming to support researchers throughout the lifecycle of experiments that can run on a variety - of testbeds spanning different administrative domains and networking technologies. Its basic principle is to bring together - available resources with useful information (characteristics, performance, network measurements). + Experiments can be deployed on a variety of testbeds spanning across different administrative domains and networking technologies. + The basic principle of MySlice is to bring together available resources with useful information (characteristics, performance, network measurements). +

- MySlice inititiave started in Janury 2011 by offering annotation services for the first ederated experimental resources. Today, - MySlice has taken a big step toward becoming a stand-alone web framework, which will present all available resources from testbeds - across the world, interconnected through the Slice-based Facility Architecture (SFA) and annotated by the TopHat measurement system. + The MySlice initiative started in January 2011 by offering annotation services for the first federated experimental resources.

- Our framework is built with standard programming tools (python and javascript for the front-end and python for the back-end) - and has a modular structure based on the concept of plugins for implementing different core functionalities (query editing, - data display, and resource allocation). + The testbeds are interconnected through the Slice-based Facility Architecture (SFA) and annotated by the TopHat measurement system.

- The goal is to enable developers with expertise on different testbed technologies and different experimental - practices to work in parallel for optimizing the tools presented to the users allowing them for a wide range of choices - according to their own requirements. Opening in this way the development of web-based user tools for experimentation and - sharing effort and information can increase significantly the chances for the achievement of our challenging objective. + Our framework is built with standard programming tools (python and javascript for the front-end and python for the back-end) and has a modular + structure based on the concept of plugins, used for implementing different core functionalities (query editing, data display, and resource allocation). +
