Abstract


This paper discusses the main challenges in providing Testbeds (environments for scientific experimentation) in ICTs, whose demands have been characterized by the increasing need for more heterogeneous and complex tests. Look for a balance between offering a platform for experimentation flexible enough to accommodate interdisciplinary research and, at the same time, enabling specialized experiments has been the approach adopted by the Serviço de Testbeds RNP. The authors detail in this work the initiatives adopted by RNP with the purpose of finding this balance and expanding the scope of experimentations supported by the available infrastructures.
