- The GEMINI instrumentation and measurement services must be applied
- to an existing slice.  This tutorial assumes the reader is familiar
- with the process of creating slices, and we do not describe the steps
- needed to create a slice in this tutorial.  However, in this tutorial
- we will be using a particular example topology.  We also assume the 
- user will access the topology using the user workspace VM designed
- specifically for this tutorial.  The example topology RSPEC and the 
- instructions for accessing the slice using the user workspace are
- given here a background information. 
+This tutorial will introduce you to the GENI Desktop web service
+for viewing and working with your slices/experiments.  It will also introduce
+you to the instrumentation and measurement services provided by GEMINI which
+can be accessed via the GENI Desktop.
+
+The tutorial will begin with a presentation and demonstration of the GENI
+Desktop and its features and capabilities, along with a demonstration of the
+measurement information available from the GEMINI measurement services.
+
+Following the intial presentation and overview, attendees will be assigned a
+set of exercises that they will work through individually to gain experience
+using the GENI Desktop and GEMINI.  Each exercise is designed to illustrate a
+different feature, or set of features, of the GENI Desktop and GEMINI.
+
+== '''Prerequisites''' ==
+
+The tutorial assumes that attendees already have a GENI Portal account and
+now how to login and create slices via the GENI Portal or Flack.
+For the purposes of this tutorial we will be using the following
+[wiki:GENIExperimenter/Tutorials/GENI_Desktop_and_GEMINI_Example_Topology].
+Attendees should have created a slice with this topology prior to the start
+of the tutorial, or should do it as soon as the tutorial starts.  Note, that
+when the slice is created, it must be created with the GEMINI extensions
+enabled.
