+
+QTIP_ is an OPNFV Project.
+
+QTIP aims to benchmark OPNFV platforms through a "Bottom up" approach, testing
+bare-metal components first.
+
+The overall problem this project tries to solve is the general
+characterization of an OPNFV platform. It will focus on general performance
+questions that are common to the platform itself, or applicable to multiple
+OPNFV use cases. QTIP will provide the capability to quantify a platform's
+performance behavior in a standardized, rigorous, and open way.
