Providing remote access and collaboration technologies to advanced manufacturing communities are exciting prospects due to the growth of the global marketplace and the pervasiveness of high-speed networks. There is a need to develop reliable protocols that extend beyond the current capabilities of typical TCP/IP connections that do not provide sufficient redundancy for controlling remote processes in manufacturing facilities. In addition, there is a need to suitably configure remote access protocol configurations that deliver satisfactory user experience amongst distributed collaborators synchronously working on manufacturing design workflows using cloud-hosted simulation software. In this paper, we present two case studies and early results that leverage the GENI Future Internet infrastructure for experimentation and development of new services that address such advanced manufacturing needs. Both case studies pivot around the idea of removing the need for users to have physical access to manufacturing resources and thus enable remote access to cloud-hosted services that use Future Internet capabilities for cost/time savings and improved convenience.
