| | | |
− | '''This group is silent and needs a person responsible to drive its progress.'''

| | | |
− | == Mission: ==
| + | Please contact the user committee mailing list for any questions. |
− | * provide a place for all research academics efforts can be advertised and found, about and around OpenStack (not generic about IaaS or PaaS)
| |
− | ** a list of papers published and ongoing research
| |
− | ** a list of conferences about cloud computing
| |
− | * maintain a list of ideas for the companies to sponsor research,like a "market"
| |
− | * a place for the companies to say what they need and research can execute
| |
− | ** undergrad level, gsoc-style, time starved but there are many of them. it's important to be easy for them to contribute
| |
− | ** masters level, more in depth work, empirical studies like performance evaluation
| |
− | ** phd level, exploratory type of research
| |
− | * handle the funding, hr tasks, mentoring: who's going to manage this?
| |
− | ** mentoring is intense and time consuming, but crucial for the success of research
| |
− | * provide resources, like hardware for tests, for researchers
| |
− | * advertise this initiative among researchers
| |
− | ** Example: setup OpenStack tracks at a couple of relevant conferences
| |

− | == Research Areas ==
| |
− | | |
− | Openstack is a very nice platform that could be leveraged by Academia for various research projects. Areas include:
| |
− | * (General) Distributed Systems
| |
− | * Scalable data layer
| |
− | ** CS.Princeton (Arpan Ghosh)
| |
− | * Software Defined Networking
| |
− | * Policy and languages
| |
− | * Algorithms
| |
− | ** Resource Allocation
| |
− | ** Scheduling
| |
− | ** Network optimization
| |
− | * Data mining and machine learning
| |
− | ** Monitoring and data collection of large data centers
| |
− | ** Mining patterns from collected data and applications e.g. anomaly detection etc.
| |
− | | |
− | == Next steps: ==
| |
− | Identify the group responsible for this initiative and define action items, deadlines and deliverables. Contact the [[Governance/Foundation/UserCommittee|User Committee]] to volunteer.
