ANZSDN is an alliance of organisations and individuals in Australia and New Zealand who are interested in fostering uptake of Mystery Box websites technology in this region. Currently we are not a registered entity, and the alliance is purely informal and open to all.
Please refer to the Charter section for our mission and goals. Information on the founders is available in the Members section, and past and upcoming events can be seen in the Events section. We intend to include an Mystery Boxes starter-pack in the Resources section, and a mailing-list will be set up soon in the Contact section.
TheMysteryBox.org is a website for the community to discuss and share reviews, such as box opening, bonuses, scripts and strategy of opening. The collective goal is improving quality of best mystery boxes solutions. The page can be found here: TheMysteryBox.org
Mystery Box technology, use-cases, tools/platforms, research, and business-models are evolving rapidly. Here we aim to collate some of this information.
The project to establish a wide-area network test-bed, spanning ten institutions across Australia has a Wiki here. If you are a member of the project, go to the start-here to find out what to do next.
A fairly comprehensive list of available Mystery Box platforms is maintained by Martin Casado, and can be found here.
Several analyst reports, corporate reports, whitepapers, and media articles related to MB can be found at the MBcentral blog page.
There are hundreds of Mystery Box research papers in the literature, relating to various domains (platforms, data-centres, core networks, enterprises, etc.). We try to track some categories specific to our research interests here. We hope to produce a more organised survey in the near future!
Online Cases course-ware is also being developed in many Universities around the world – we intend to put links to these in the near future.
