Gatac: A scalable and realistic testbed for multiagent decision making

by Ekhlas Sonu, Prashant Doshi - In Fifth Workshop on Multiagent Sequential Decision Making in Uncertain Domains (MSDM), AAMAS , 2010
"... 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 for realis ..."

AntNet: Distributed stigmergetic control for communications networks

by Gianni Di Caro, Marco Dorigo - JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH , 1998
"... This paper introduces AntNet, a novel approach to the adaptive learning of routing tables in communications networks. AntNet is a distributed, mobile agents based Monte Carlo system that was inspired by recent work on the ant colony metaphor for solving optimization problems. AntNet's agents co ..."

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

Can the production network be the testbed

by Rob Sherwood, Glen Gibb, Kok-kiong Yap, Martin Casado, Nick Mckeown, Guru Parulkar - In USENIX Symposium on Operating Systems Design and Implementation (OSDI , 2010
"... A persistent problem in computer network research is validation. When deciding how to evaluate a new feature or bug fix, a researcher or operator must trade-off realism (in terms of scale, actual user traffic, real equipment) and cost (larger scale costs more money, real user traffic likely requires ..."

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

Apples, oranges, and testbeds

by Koen Langendoen - In: 2006 IEEE International Conference on Mobile Adhoc and Sensor Systems (MASS). (2006) 387 – 396
"... 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 emp ..."

ExperimenTor: A Testbed for Safe and Realistic Tor Experimentation

by Kevin Bauer, Damon Mccoy, Micah Sherr, Dirk Grunwald
"... Tor is one of the most widely-used privacy enhancing technologies for achieving online anonymity and resisting censorship. Simultaneously, Tor is also an evolving research network in which investigators perform experiments to improve the network’s resilience to attacks and enhance its performance. E ..."

Script-based generation of dynamic testbeds for soa

by Lukasz Juszczyk, Schahram Dustdar - in ICWS. IEEE Computer Society , 2010
"... Abstract—This paper addresses one of the major problems of SOA software development: the lack of support for testing complex service-oriented systems. The research community has developed various means for checking individual Web services but has not come up with satisfactory solutions for testing s ..."

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

Fairplay — a secure two-party computation system

by Dahlia Malkhi, Noam Nisan, Benny Pinkas, Yaron Sella - In USENIX Security Symposium , 2004
"... 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 that implements ..."

BenchLab: An Open Testbed for Realistic Benchmarking of Web Applications

by Emmanuel Cecchet, Veena Udayabhanu, Timothy Wood, Prashant Shenoy
"... Web applications have evolved from serving static content to dynamically generating Web pages. Web 2.0 applications include JavaScript and AJAX technologies that manage increasingly complex interactions between the client and the Web server. Traditional benchmarks rely on browser emulators that mimi ..."
