+== About This Experiment ==
 
 This tutorial section is adapted from the tutorials at [http://witestlab.poly.edu/index.php/tutorials.html NYU-Polytech] and expanded from the more concise [http://wimax.orbit-lab.org/wiki/WiMAX/30/07#a18.GEC13:TutorialsfromPolyNYU ORBIT adaptations] done previously. As before, we will perform our experiment on Sandbox 4, providing some background information at each step. For more information, see the relevant documentation for each step at one of the source websites.

+== Background Information ==
+
+Experiments performed on ORBIT (specifically) and all GENI wireless test-beds are managed by what was called the ORBIT Management Framework, now simply known as [http://mytestbed.net/projects/omf/wiki/OMF_Main_Page OMF]. (For background information on frameworks, see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_framework Wikipedia]. Simply put, a framework provides programs which perform all the generic functions a programmer would otherwise need to code at a given ''layer'' to obtain functional applications. This includes programs that check various paths, run subprograms, collect data, check validity, sanitize inputs, and more.
