// $Id$ Description ----------- This directory contains a simple three stage AV test: a. Sender b. Distributer c. Receiver The sender reads data read from a file and sends it to the distributer process. The distributer acts as a conduit. It receives data from the sender and sends it immediately to the receiver process. The sender and receiver register their references with the Naming Service. The distributer gets the sender and receiver references from the Naming Service. It then binds to the receiver and sender. When the connection between the distributer and sender is set up the sender starts sending to the distributer which in turn sends data to the receiver. When the sender has finished reading the file it tells the ditributer which in turn tells the recveiver to destroy the streams set up. Running the test ---------------- Start the Naming Service Start the following processes in the same order. sender ------ sender [-f ] [-r ] -f filename --> The name of the file from which data needs to be sent -r data_rate --> The rate at which the data needs to be paced. receiver -------- receiver [-f ] -f filename --> File into which the data received from the distributer is stored. distributer: ----------- distributer (no args) Please see run_test.pl script for the detail of a test run.
