Check-out our WalT platform!

These last few years, I have been working on an experimentation platform called WalT. From the user point of view, a WalT platform is a set of remotely managed nodes where you can deploy an operating system (so-called WalT image), run a distributed experiment, and collect experiment logs.

WalT architecture

WalT relies on docker for easy packaging, modification, and sharing (on the docker hub). of WalT images. The sharing aspect makes experiments easily reproducible. Nodes are low cost single-board-computers (Raspberry Pi B/B+, support for other hardware should come soon). The WalT platform is itself very easily reproducible (it is made of low cost components, free and open source software, and installation is automated). You can set up your own in a few minutes.

You can get more info on the WalT website. We presented WalT at a seminar recently, our talk material (pdf file and two videos) is available on the resources page.
