Computer and Networking Experimental Research Using Testbeds (CNERT 2017)
Monday, 1 May 2017 ● 08:30 – 17:00 ● Room: Georgia 7
Experiments conducted within testbeds play an essential role in advancing computer-systems research. This workshop brings together researchers and technical experts to share experiences and advance the state of the art in testbed-based experimental research in areas such as networking, distributed systems, and cloud computing. It aims to inspire researchers to use testbeds in novel and interesting ways as a means to validate research ideas. The scope of the workshop includes research activities that need large-scale and/or specialized infrastructure, deep programmability, reproducibility, and instrumentation and measurement tools.
