Abstract :
The NITOS wireless testbed, is one of the main building blocks in the wireless testbed experimentation, offered by the FIRE community, and a core Fed4Fire partner. Its main focus is on wireless accessed technologies and on all layers of the protocol stack. In the rapidly changing technological environment, a unique opportunity is provided to enhance the NITOS testbed with cloud computing experimentation capabilities and increase the heterogeneity and diversity of possible services that can be offered to experimenters/ developers. In this paper we describe the NITOS approach on adopting cloud technologies and SDN capabilities and how we upgrade the meaning of “delivered service” in testbed experimentation using SOA extensions.
