In an attempt to bridge the gap between the theoretical advances in multiagent decision making algorithms and their application in real world scenario, we present the Georgia testbed for autonomous control of vehicles (GaTAC). GaTAC provides a low-cost, opensource and flexible environment

algorithms coming from the telecommunications and machine learning elds. The algorithms' performance is evaluated over a set of realistic testbeds. We run many experiments over real and artificial IP datagram networks with increasing number of nodes and under several paradigmatic spatial and temporal

requires downtime, and real equipment requires vendor adoption which can take years). Building a realistic testbed is hard because “real ” networking takes place on closed, commercial switches and routers with special purpose hardware. But if we build our testbed from software switches, they run several

Abstract — Research into wireless sensor networks is rapidly moving from simulations to realistic testbeds. The widely varying characteristics (e.g., radio hardware, #nodes, topology) of various testbeds raises concerns about the validity of results across different testbeds. This paper presents

toolkit and testbed. We report our early experiences with prototype ExperimenTor testbeds deployed at three research institutions. 1

systems that operate in service-based environments and, therefore, need realistic testbeds for evaluating their quality. We regard this as an unnecessary burden for SOA engineers. As a proposed solution for this issue, we present the Genesis2 testbed generator framework. Genesis2 supports engineers

Advances in modern cryptography coupled with rapid growth in processing and communication speeds make secure twoparty computation a realistic paradigm. Yet, thus far, interest in this paradigm has remained mostly theoretical. This paper introduces Fairplay [28], a full-fledged system

BenchLab, an open testbed that uses real Web browsers to measure the performance of Web applications. We show why using real browsers is important for benchmarking modern Web applications such as Wikibooks and demonstrate geographically distributed load injection for modern Web applications. 1.

Researchers in the diagnosis community have developed a number of promising techniques for system health management. However, realistic empirical evaluation and comparison of these approaches is often hampered by a lack of standard data sets and suitable testbeds. In this paper we describe
