Abstract
Building an experimental network within the testbed has been a tiresome process for experimenters, due to the complexity of the physical resource assignment and the configuration overhead. Also, the process could not be expedited across testbeds, because the syntax of a configuration file varies depending on specific hardware and software. In this paper, we propose the AnyBed: the experimental network-building system using the logical and physical network topologies which are described in XML. Mapping these two topologies, AnyBed can build intended logical network topology on any PC clusters. We have evaluated the Anybed implementation using two distinct clusters.
