In today's Internet, a single service provider rarely has purview over an entire end-to-end path; this situation hinders the deployment and adoption of new network services. The PI propose to design and prototype a new network architecture, Cabo (Concurrent Architectures are Better than One), which resolves this problem by separating infrastructure providers (who own and manage the physical network infrastructure) from service providers (who deploy end-to-end services to users). Using Cabo, service providers will reserve network resources (i.e., virtual nodes and links) on equipment that may span one or more infrastructure providers. The separation of network service providers from infrastructure providers also allows a single service provider to construct end-to-end services; it also allows a service provider to operate multiple virtual networks, each of which is tailored to a specific application. For example, one virtual network may provide strict security guarantees but may not provide complete reachability to all destinations, while another virtual network may guarantee global reachability for applications that do not require strong security guarantees. The outcome of this project will be: (1) the design and implementation of a substrate that service providers can use to deploy new network architectures and services, and (2) investigation of example scenarios where Cabo can provide better security, robustness, and end-to-end performance guarantees. Cabo's initial design leverages virtualization, tunneling, and new experimental platforms for network protocols and architectures, including the PIs' own Virtual Network Infrastructure (VINI), which the PIs plan to use to prototype and evaluate their ideas. Successful completion of this project will have significant impact on Future Internet architecture development and deployment.

在当今的互联网中，单个服务提供商很少在整个端到端路径上拥有范围。这种情况阻碍了新网络服务的部署和采用。 PI建议设计和原型一个新的网络体系结构，CABO（并发体系结构比一个更好），通过将基础架构提供商（谁拥有和管理物理网络基础架构）与服务提供商（将临时服务部门部署和管理用户分开）来解决此问题。 使用CABO，服务提供商将在可能跨越一个或多个基础架构提供商的设备上保留网络资源（即虚拟节点和链接）。 网络服务提供商与基础架构提供商的分离还允许单个服务提供商构建端到端服务；它还允许服务提供商操作多个虚拟网络，每个虚拟网络都针对特定应用程序量身定制。 例如，一个虚拟网络可能会提供严格的安全保证，但可能无法为所有目的地提供完整的可达到性，而另一个虚拟网络可以保证不需要强大安全保证的应用程序的全局可及性。 该项目的结果将是：（1）服务提供商可以用来部署新的网络体系结构和服务的基板的设计和实施，以及（2）调查CABO可以提供更好的安全性，稳健性和端到端性能保证的示例场景。 CABO的初始设计利用虚拟化，隧道和新的实验平台来用于网络协议和架构，包括PIS的虚拟网络基础架构（VINI），PIS计划用于原型和评估其想法。成功完成该项目将对未来的互联网体系结构开发和部署产生重大影响。
