Re: [college] A benchmarking student project

[Philippe Merle <Philippe.Merle@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

If you tried to browse http://clif.objectweb.org
and its OW gforge, you will discover that the
documentation and examples are very poor (if exist). 
Then it will be hard to give this powerful framework
to young students. They will have a lot of studies
to understand how using the various middleware to
benchmark. For these middleware, documentation and 
examples exist. 

So we could try to apply CLIF in our context
when we could understand how using CLIF and
what the user benefits will be.
