= GENI Desktop and GEMINI Tutorial = 

== '''Tutorial Overview''' ==

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.
