Thanks Guenter,
I agree, it would be good to have a self-explanatory technical slide deck as we start distributing things now.

Good points regarding my deck. I will look at it together with the other comments.

Kind regards
Rolf.

Subject: RE: [oe-sync] FW: Open Edge Computing Initiative - Progress Call on Thursday this week

For discussion:
Related to Outreach program (see Rolf's slides, p7):

-                  sub-goal of the outreach will be to get new ideas for how to commercially use cloudlets, encourage people to try things out and share experience.

-                  Should we maintain a 'stakeholder list': key influencers in the industry, status of our engagement with them, their stance (red, amber, green). If everything is red/remains red, action required...If all green, there should be visible momentum.

-                  For more discussion with OpenStack players: What discussion material is most suitable?
E.g. I consider as very important technical documents the following three:

1.      CMU-CS-15-123 Kiryong final report OpenStack++.pdf

2.      CMU-CS-15-113 Adaptive VM handoff.pdf

3.      CMU-CS-12-148 JIT Provisioning for Cyber Foraging.pdf

However, it's not easy to have a 121 session with some OpenStack players as above docs amount to 50+ pages.

Would it be useful to create a technical slide deck on the basis of the ppt from Kiryong/Prakash from Pittsburgh?
For my own understanding, I have recently thought about how I that presentation could be extended.
I attach my thoughts from mid August: I have e.g. added the pages indicated in the top right corner with NEW (p6, 11, 12, 13, 14).

Comments on the overview slides of the OECI:
Page 3:

-                  What is meant with "Very small devices"? smaller smartphones? iWatch type? Google Glass type?

-                  On right side, what is meant by "Local Resilience"? Why "local"?  Is the message, centralisation leads to reliance on a few DC facilities?

-                  We could add the factors which Satya has highlighted in papers and presentations: becoming available: new type of devices, engines for face recognition etc...., as these are enablers for very new use cases.
Page 18:

-                  The arrows in the picture: how shall they be read: Arrow points from x to y:  x calls an API on y? x invokes something on y?

-                  The arrow for A: Cloudlet Discover: Is this going indeed from device to the edge server, or instead to a discovery service (which can be located anywhere)? E.g. we said it could even be a Zynga-specific discovery server, found by the Zynga app on the device.

-                  The B-API for VM provisioning: Not sure whether the arrow makes sense. Is the cloud platform invoking something in a VM? Isn't the user/app deciding to use an edge service once discovered and starts to invoke the VM provisioning workflow? Should arrow B go from app on device to Open Cloud platform in the cloudlet?

-                  Similar for the C-API: Is triggered by the app on the device I suspect (at least in cloudlet context, not in ETSI MEC context).

Further: Would it be useful to each have a slide for different stakeholder groups: Real-world touch points with Cloudlets or workflow interfaces to Cloudlets or operational aspects regarding cloudlets?  .... As these slides could be used for outreach to different groups. To give some examples:

-                  For network operator:

-                  May deploy cloud software at edge locations (incl. base VMs)

-                  May operate a discovery service

-                  May offer PaaS components to developers e.g. to create launch VMs

-                  Etc.
For application developer:

-                  May create  and run their own cloudlet discovery service

-                  May create applications designed to execute on both tier 1 cloud and at the edge

-                  May create apps that can offload execution to the edge on user demand

-                  Will use cloudlet platform API(s) to create launch VM and overlay VM

-                  Will make overlay VM available either together with app or on a particular web location

-                  May develop mechanism for the app to decide when to request a handoff
For an enterprise:

-                  May deploy edge servers at locations across the enterprise premises/campus

-                  Etc.
