Field Session
At Colorado School of Mines every student must complete a field session pertaining to their major in order to graduate. I am completing my requirement of field session this summer. As I noted in a previous post, field session 2007 started Monday. Well good news is 3 days into it I am not burned out, and excited about the project.
I am working on a small but very important part of Parallel Real-time Immersive network Modeling Environment (PRIME.)
The PRIME Research states the goal of the project is…
to investigate fundamental technologies that enable real-time large-scale network simulations and to develop a real-time immersive network simulation environment
One neat part they have implemented is real computers and applications can participate in the simulation!
The specific part of the project that my team is working on is developing the capability for the virtual routers to maintain configuration and activity information and be able to report it using the SNMP standard. (A more detailed project description on the Field Session website.)
I am working on this project with two other students. As an advantage, one of the students has done some work for this exact project and has been very helpful in brining us up to speed on EXACTLY how we are to get things done.
