Larry, John-
Another architectural question: if the GSC is intended to set policy
for the use of GENI, how will these policies show up in the
architecture. Some policies may require GENI-wide state. For
examples, "a graduate student can use no more than 10 machines at a
time" or "reservations are limited to 3 days in the period leading up
to the SIGCOMM deadline". I don't see how the Management Authorities
or Slice Authorities can have a sufficiently broad view to know
whether those policies are being violated.
For that matter, how would the GSC approve a particular experiment
(slice)? My understanding is that the Slice Authority roughly
corresponds to a researcher's home organization, or at least someone
who will vouch for them. That seems a different axis than
'researcher X is approved to use Y resources for experiment Z'.
