Given the highly empirical nature of research in cloud computing, networked systems, and
related fields, testbeds play an important role in the research ecosystem. In this paper, we …

In recent years, there has been a growing demand for cybersecurity experts, and, according
to predictions, this demand will continue to increase. Cyber Ranges can fill this gap by …

The performance of compute hardware varies: software run repeatedly on the same server
(or a different server with supposedly identical parts) can produce performance results that …

Network operators and researchers constantly search for platforms to evaluate future
deployments and test new research ideas. When experimenting, they usually face …

Advancements in wireless communication and the increased accessibility to low-cost
sensing and data processing IoT technologies have increased the research and …

In scientific research, the independent reproduction of experimental results is the source of
trust. The release of experimental artifacts enables the reproduction of results; however …

Abstract Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) refer to systems where some intelligence is
embedded into devices that interact with their environment. Using wireless technology in …

The NSF-funded Open Cloud Testbed (OCT) project is building and supporting a testbed for
research and experimentation into new cloud platforms–the underlying software which …

We propose an approach for improved reproducibility that includes capturing and relating
provenance characteristics and performance metrics. We discuss two use cases: scientific …

Research reproducibility is an important factor to support the full research life cycle; this is
especially important for experimental research, where it is required to also reproduce the …
