WARPnet Testing Framework

A big part in wireless algorithm evaluation is gathering data on its performance. On one end of the spectrum, doing this in non-real-time but with a fine grained view is possible with WARPLab. On the other end of the spectrum, gather aggregate data is possible by the node storing the information and it being read by a terminal viewer. To truly evaluate the algorithm at a network level, is considerably more difficult, especially as the size of the network grows. To tackle this problem we developed the WARPnet Testing Framework that is able to communicate with a network of nodes, conduct pre-defined experiments and gather data in real-time for analysis.
