• ONOS Build 2017 @Samsung, Seoul: 1st brigade report presentations and demos at SDN Science Fair and Community Showcases.
• IEEE NETSOFT 2017, July 3-7, Bologna (ONOS+CORD tutorial)
• ONOS hackathon projects at RESCOM 2017, 20-21 June, 2017, Croisic, France.
• 1st brigade workshop: May 26, LIP6, Paris, France. 

Goals:

●  Assess controller robustness against network and system attacks

●  Assess controller robustness against software bundle-level and Karaf-level bugs

●  Assess controller performance (e.g., detection time, recovery time) in case of software and network failures

●  Identify countermeasures to cope with attacks and bugs against weak software elements

●  Compare the ONOS controller to other equivalent controllers in terms of network and system performance of core services and bundles as well as of southbound interface plugins
  

●  Evaluate control-plane performance in multi-layer/domain scenarios.  

Tasks:

●  A report about identified security & performance issues for each release.      

●  Run monthly e-meetings with presentations of experiment results.


●  Run exploratory hackathons and tutorials at workshops and conferences.
