Kin, Erich,
Thanks for the great start on architecture!
I have a similar feeling with Erich: Can we add a bit more on novelty.
Specifically, my reading is that the current architecture claims three
"unique" issues:
- First, SDC for coalition forces consists of multiple enclaves and
security is a main issue
- Second, contrast with traditional SDN, the proposed SDC with multiple
enclaves, ... thus forming the hierarchy of control planes
- Third, both control and data planes within an enclave can be fragmented.
I feel that the first two, security and the need of intradomain +
interdomain, might be considered as standard. One
possibility is to shorten the issues a bit and focus more on what we plan
to explore, model and compare.
For 3, could we use a different way to argue: we see novel opportunities in
SDC, e.g., control-plane repair?

Hey Kin,
I think this is a very nice step. I have only a few suggestions.
- In the last paragraph, I would put (2) ahead of (1) in the listing,
since architectures are the focus.
- Also in the last paragraph, I think mentioning UAVs so explicitly is too
specific. I would use something like "mobile resources" or "mobile assets"
with some examples (e.g., UAVs, robots, troops, etc.).
- As I'm seeing in a lot of the writeups, what the innovation is is not
well specified. This is somewhat inherent in such a broad concept as
architectures. Is our "innovation" that we are going to explore, evaluate,
and determine the proper architectures for SDC?

Dear Erich and colleagues:
Per your suggestion, I have just finished the first draft on SDC
architectures in the attached. As said, I have not done research on SDN
architectures… So, I am not sure if I make sense or if I miss something
important there. As usual, your comments and suggestions are welcome.
Dear Richard, I am sending this to everyone instead of iterating between
us individually because we are running out of time soon and I would like to
solicit comments from all colleagues as quickly as possible. However, your
comments and ideas are particularly appreciated.
I am copying this to our colleagues (Chris Dearlove and Alan Cullen) at
BAE as their ideas about security may be relevant to the third-party
enclaves in the SDC architectures. Their feedback and suggestions are also
welcome.
Thanks.
Regards,
- Kin

Hey all,
One thing to realize is we have 4 pages for the technical component.
Given our four innovations, that means roughly 1 page per innovation.
References don't count and can be placed at the end.
The template is Times 10 point, so I suggest you work in that font to keep
an eye on space.

Hi Ting, Richard, Don, and others,
Following our discussion during the last telecon and over email, I added
some text to Ting's writeup with track changes on.
I added some material on controlled mobility and fundamental limits. For
the latter, I tried to address the heterogeneity concern raised by ARL in
their review when talking about percolation theory. We may need to iterate
on this text.
Unfortunately, I will have to miss tomorrow's meeting due to a conflict,
so please email me if any text needs updating / harmonization with the
final writeup.
thanks,
-Prithwish
