Multi-Party Experiment Creation Example

This example walks through creating a multiparty experiment from a single experiment description. That description may have been created from a compostion program or created by hand. We describe the key elements of the experiment description and walk through the creation.

Experiment Description

The ns-2 description of our example is:

# SERVICE: project_export:deter/a::project=TIED
# SERVICE: project_export:deter/b::project=SAFER
# SERVICE: seer_master:deter/a:deter/a,deter/b
# SERVICE: local_seer_control:deter/a
# SERVICE: local_seer_control:deter/b
