Bandwidth on Demand Deliverables

This document describes the design specification for the IDM module prototype of the Bandwidth on Demand system developed by the GÉANT2 JRA3 activity. The prototype is a proof of concept of the design, information flow control and reservation processing on both inter-domain and intra-domain levels with an initial focus on the Inter-Domain Manager (IDM). The scope of this work is to implement and test the key modules and functionalities, which need to be studied before building a fully operational system. However the prototype is engineered so as to comprise the basis for further system development. It has been designed as a test machine, to allow easy discovery of system weaknesses and potential problems at the early stages of the system development. In the first part of the deliverable, the building blocks of the prototype as organized in packages and classes are documented in full detail, while in the second part the relationships between classes/objects are documented using sequence diagrams.
