Loading Aspects

Single-Node MTS

A single-node MTS implementation was created for performance characterization and MTS overhead computation. It is a very lightweight version of the MTS whereby a single node is run without the overhead of costly services (naming,wp,etc.) It provides the developer with a stripped testcase for performance characterization.

Configuring a Single-Node MTS at Runtime

All that is required to run a Single-Node MTS society is to specify one machine with one or multiple agents, one node, and an argument sepcifying the desired Single-Node MTS implementation:
