%summary: |
% New technologies for the Internet should be evaluated on
% environments dedicated to experiments,
% in order to avoid influences to critical services on the Internet.
% Generally software simulation and small testbed using real nodes are
% used to satisfy these requirements.
% There are several stages in developing new technologies,
% however, and these technologies may not satisfy requirements for all
% stages.
%
% We pointed the gap between the Internet and environment for
% experiment, especially in aspects of scale, complexity and reality.
% We proposed and implemented StarBED which is a testbed based on lots
% of actual nodes,
% in order to build large-scale, complex and realistic environments
% for experiments.
% StarBED consists of 512 PCs and switches which connect these PCs.
% The PCs on StarBED are designed to run 10 virtual PCs on a physical
% PC.
% It enables to build a topology for experiments using up to 5120
% nodes.
% It is difficult to manage and control such a lot of nodes.
% We also designed and implemented SpringOS, which is a supporting software
% for making experiments.
% SpringOS makes the topology and drives the scenario for experiment according
% to the user's configuration automatically.
%
% Many experiments were performed on StarBED, 
% and this shows StarBED's effectiveness.
