DETERlab Testbed Research Community

Researchers funded by the EMIST project formed the initial core of the DETERlab research community, but an expanding set of other users have employed DETERlab. There was constant interchange between the security researchers funded by EMIST and and the testbed builders of the DETER project. Within the EMIST project, the researchers organized themselves into three collaborative areas (DDoS, worms, and routing).

The DETERlab staff holds a monthly telephone conference to which al users are invited to discuss testbed operations, requirements, etc. Details will be available to all registered users.

To foster testbed builder/user communication, the DETER project holds regular community meetings for DETERlab testbed users and builders. The agendas and slides of the most recent meetings are online.

Many peer-reviewed publications as well as some theses and technical reports have used results obtained on DETERlab.

The DETERlab testbed has also been used as a laboratory by university-level cyber-security classes.
