-This tutorial is designed to help bridge the gap between the 'toy' [wiki:GENIExperimenterWelcome/Repository/WiMax beginner experiments] and 'real' experiments that can lead to interesting research results. The aim is for you to leave this tutorial with an understanding of 
+In this tutorial, you'll learn two ways to use GENI WiMAX. We'll try 
+ * an experiment that uses live, on-campus WiMAX to measure an interactive real-time communication application
+ * an experiment that is run remotely over SSH on a WiMAX testbed 
+
+In both cases, we hope you will gain an understanding of
  * the capabilities of the WiMAX platform for evaluating experimental applications and protocols in a wireless environment
  * a sense of what the 'pieces' of a WiMAX experiment look like, and how you can use this to conduct own research in this framework

-In this tutorial, participants will gain hands-on experience with step-by-step guidance in designing and conducting an experiment utilizing GENI wireless infrastructure. Participants will work in small groups to learn how to develop and execute an OMF experiment using WiMAX-equipped clients, all within the context of a non-trivial experiment from a major area of computer science or networking research.

-If you are planning to run your own experiments on WiMAX, it is important to understand the limitations of realistic wireless experimentation and how these will affect your work. This paper, which appeared in the 2nd GENI Research and Educational Experiment Workshop (GREE2013), describes the performance of the GENI WiMAX testbeds and also examines why some applications might not perform as well as expected on this platform.
