    3 This example walks through creating a multiparty experiment from a single experiment topology description.  That description may have been created from [wiki:FeddMulti#ComposingFragments a compostion program] or created by hand.  We describe the key elements of the experiment description and walk through the creation.

    7373Briefly, the first two lines set the DETER project that will be used to configure each party's area.  The deter/a area will be an experiment owned by the TIED project; deter/b will be configured by the SAFER project.  The '''project_export''' service exports the user configuration and filesystem named by the '''project''' (project=TIED) attribute.
    7474
    75 The next three lines configure the SEER experiment control system.  The '''local_seer''' service will add a node named '''control''' to each experiment that is effictively invisible outside the party's area.  Computers will treat that as a SEER controller, and experimenters can connect to it directly to see and manipulate their areas.  The '''seer_master''' service adds a node named seer-master to the experiment that each area's controller will also connect to.  Connecting to the seer-master controller allows thw whole experiment to be viewed and manipulated.
