Fedd 3.0 includes several new features and several bug fixes.
Features:
- ProtoGENI v1.0 plug-in support. Experiments can now use ProtoGENI nodes
- A plug-in for using DETER's internal network has been added, allowing multiple sub-experiments to be created on DETER.
- An example skeleton plug-in is included in the code, as a demonstration of the architecture and a starting point for new plug-ins.
- Fedd uses topdl, our topology description language for sub-segment representation and communication between experiment controller and access controller. Topdl will be making its way out to user interfaces and input tools as well.
- Fine grained specification of experiment services that allows experimenters to compose experimental environments from multiple sources.
- This has been used to construct multi-party experiments with information hiding.
- Access controller/plug-in code has been reorganized and more heavily commented.
- Common functionality has been moved into a plug-in base class for easy re-use.
- Dynamic plug-in controllers can be added by users
- Plug in interfaces have been documented?
- The old multi-function
fedd_client.pycommand has been split out into individual commands that are easier to read and simpler to maintain. - Local emulab access controllers now use the Emulab XMLRPC interface.
