  • Description:Reproducing experimental results is a core tenet of the scientific method. Unfortunately, the increasing complexity of the system we build, deploy and evaluate makes it difficult to reproduce results and hence is one of the greatest impairments for the progress of science in general and distributed systems in particular. In Angainor, we are applying a systematic approach to all the stages of the evaluation process to address the following challenges: i) precisely describe the environment and variables affecting the experiment, ii) minimize the number of (uncontrollable) variables affecting the experiment and iii) have the ability to subject the system under evaluation to controlled fault patterns.
