== Description ==
The session will cover techniques that will help experimenters:
1. Develop and manage complex experiments.
2. Gain a better understanding of what is happening with their experiment
3. Ensure experiments are repeatable and reproducible.
Topics to be covered include:
* Growing an experiment one dimension at a time (number of resources, number of aggregates, adding an OF controller, etc)
* Install/post-boot scripts
* Custom images
* Scripting experiments
* Experiment software version control
