SUMMARY:P4 Developer Days - QuIP: A P4 Quantum Internet Protocol Prototyping Framework
DESCRIPTION:P4 Developer Days webinar\, “QuIP: A P4 Quantum Internet Protocol Prototyping Framework” \nView Slides \nView Video \nAbstract\n\n\nQuantum entanglement is so fundamentally different from a network packet that several quantum network stacks have been proposed; one of which has even been experimentally demonstrated. Several simulators have also been developed to make up for limited hardware availability\, and which facilitate the design and evaluation of quantum network protocols. However\, the lack of shared tooling and community-agreed node architectures has resulted in protocol implementations that are tightly coupled to their simulators. Besides limiting their reusability between different simulators\, it also makes building upon prior results and simulations difficult. To address this problem\, we have developed QuIP: a P4-based Quantum Internet Protocol prototyping framework for quantum network protocol design. QuIP is a framework for designing and implementing quantum network protocols in a platform-agnostic fashion. It achieves this by providing the means to flexibly\, but rigorously\, define device architectures against which quantum network protocols can be implemented in the network programming language P416. QuIP also comes with the necessary tooling to enable their execution in existing quantum network simulators. We demonstrate its use by showcasing V1Quantum\, a completely new device architecture\, implementing a link- and network-layer protocol\, and simulating it in the existing simulator NetSquid. \nSpeaker\nWojciech Kozlowski is the Quantum Communication Topic Lead at SURF. He completed his MSci in Theoretical Quantum Physics at the University of Cambridge and his PhD in Atomic and Laser Physics at the University of Oxford. Since then\, Wojciech has been involved with networks\, both classical and quantum. After his PhD he joined Metaswitch in London where he worked as a software engineer developing (classical) control planes. In 2019\, Wojciech moved to the Netherlands where he worked  as a postdoc and later quantum network engineer at the TU Delft before joining SURF in 2024.

SUMMARY:P4 Developer Days - Programmable Hardware Emulation Environment for Realistic and Scalable Network Testing
DESCRIPTION:P4 Developer Days: “Programmable Hardware Emulation Environment for Realistic and Scalable Network Testing” \nView Slides \nView Video \nAbstract\nNetwork emulators are essential for testing and validating new networking solutions before deployment. In this presentation\, we will showcase a hardware-based emulation framework that brings programmable switches and SmartNIC awareness to network experimentation. Our environment enables realistic and scalable evaluation of offloading\, host interaction\, and in-network processing. Through a simple API\, researchers can define and deploy multi-switch\, multi-host topologies; configure diverse link characteristics (e.g.\, bandwidth\, latency\, packet loss); and generate realistic traffic patterns. Finally\, we validate the environment using multiple state-of-the-art scenarios\, assessing robustness by reproducing and extending prior experiments across an expanded evaluation space. \nSpeakers\nFabricio Rodriguez received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the Universidade Estadual de Campinas in 2018 and 2024\, respectively. He was a researcher with the Information Networking Technologies Research Innovation Group (INTRIG)\, participating in projects with Ericsson\, Padtec\, and RNP. He is currently a Research Scientist at Telefónica Research\, Spain. His research interests include programmable networks\, in-network applications\, security\, and network performance. \n  \nFrancisco Vogt received the bachelor’s degree in computer science from the Federal University of Pampa and the master’s degree in computer engineering from the Universidade Estadual de Campinas\, Brazil\, where he is currently pursuing the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering. He is currently a Visiting Researcher with the University of Amsterdam and works with the Multiscale Networked Systems (MNS) Research Group. He is involved as a Researcher with Ericsson on the project “SMARTNESS 2030: SMART NEtworks and ServiceS for 2030.” His research interests include programmable networks\, network monitoring\, network function offloading\, and network testing. \nRegister to attend this webinar! \n
