The Plan

Steps to completing this project:

1. Practice using Netnice
2. Hope I get Samsara soon (I have heard from Landon Cox at Duke)
3. Examine how Samsara/Pastiche find and creates storage partnerships
4. Implement bandwidth reservations/restrictions for all partnerships
5. Implement SLA negotiation between two peers
6. Ensure the SLA is cannot be violated
7. Optionally augment the Pastiche routing protocol to include finding peers with desired SLA characteristics
8. Perform some kind of experimentation on the system to determine.... something
9. Write a paper describing the work and the experiment
