- implement an example O-cloud infrastructure hosting one or more O-RAN NF(s) (e.g. O-CU, O-DU) at Rutgers University Winlab WINLAB (https://winlab.rutgers.edu/)
- develop a setup and tutorial to enable multiple users to replicate the cloud-native open-source implementation and contribute to open source
- study and develop open-source software to support management/data collection of the infrastructure and NFs from the SMO, using energy consumption as an example

- Implement an example O-cloud infrastructure in Rutgers Winlab WINLAB using methods aligned with LF/LFN open-source projects. We intend to make this available to users globally to perform academic/open-source research
- Demonstrate instantiation of sample O-RAN NF(s) on O-cloud
- Implement sample SMO functionality for cloud management/orchestration
- Demonstrate data collection from cloud/NF(s) through O2 interface (e.g. energy consumption of O-DU)
