Welcome & acknowledgements

This is the location of our custom scripts, files, and data used in our publication "Xen and the Art of Repeated Research".

Scripts used to generate or parse result files

Some of these scripts were adapted for use by our team at clarkson from files originally distributed by the XEN team, others were written in house.
