Quick Start

We provide you with a small example application to get started with Nemo. The example implementation is located at:

 edu.nwu.nemo.examples.MulticastAgent

You will need to start up multiple instances of this multicast agent, each with a different functionality:

1. You need one bootstrap agent,
2. one or potentially many subscribers,
3. and one or a few publishers.

You need to pass the correct classpath with all the dependency in order to start the multicast agents. Following a small bash script to facilitate this task:

 #!/bin/bash

java \
-mx128m \
-classpath \
nemo-1.0.jar:\
heimdall-1.0.jar:\
jug-1.1.jar:\
commons-logging-1.0.3.jar:\
commons-collections-3.1.jar:\
log4j-1.2.8.jar:\
colt-1.0.3.jar \
edu.nwu.nemo.examples.MulticastAgent $@

The bootstrap agent requires only one parameter, a unique local port. A subscriber additionally needs the address of the bootstrap agent. Finally, a publisher requires a third parameter that specifies the packet send interval.
