12 | | This hands-on tutorial will illustrate illustrate the GENI experimenter workflow using Flack, a graphical experiment control tool. Attendees will create and run a relatively simple experiment using geographically distributed resource. Topics to be covered include creating a GENI slice, discovering resources, reading resource specifications (RSpecs), adding resources to a slice, deploying experiment software, instrumenting the experiment and finally, terminating an experiment. |

| 12 | This hands-on tutorial will illustrate the GENI experimenter workflow using Flack, a graphical experiment control tool. Attendees will create and run a simple experiment using geographically distributed resources from multiple GENI aggregates. Topics to be covered include creating a GENI slice, discovering resources, adding resources to a slice, deploying experiment software, and instrumenting the experiment. |

| 14 | === Prerequisites === |
| 15 | A basic understanding of GENI concepts (will be covered in the Newcomers' Session) |
| 16 | |
| 17 | === Please Arrive With: === |
| 18 | Laptop with recent version of Adobe Flash. If you are unable to bring one, you may partner with someone else. |
| 19 | |

| 21 | === Pre-Work === |
| 22 | '''Note''' - Please complete this step in advance, as doing it on the day of |
| 23 | the tutorial will take up a lot of time. |

| 28 | If multiple people from the same group are attending this tutorial, one |
| 29 | (preferably a faculty member, PI, etc.) can start the project, and |
| 30 | others can join it, using a link that the project leader will receive |
| 31 | when the project is approved. |

| 33 | === Results === |
| 34 | After completing this tutorial, you will be able to create a slice on |
| 35 | multiple GENI aggregates and install tools to instrument the behavior of |
| 36 | that slice. The account that you create for the tutorial is a real GENI |
| 37 | account, and you will be able to use it to run experiments |
