- Experimental set up: 

	+ Machines specs: as mentioned in THPA paper.
	
	+ Kubernetes version: 1.18.0
	
	+ Docker version: 19.03.13

	+ Round trip delay between node = 10ms.
		+ Execute "add_delay.sh" script to add delay between nodes:
			+ ./add_delay.sh <node1_ip> <node2_ip> <delay_value>
			Ex: ./add_delay.sh 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.19 5 (delay between 2 nodes is 10ms Round trip)

	+ Apache tool should be installed for traffic generation

	+ Switch kube-proxy to ipvs mode

	+ App to deploy can be found in app/ directory

	+ HPA must be enabled for the depoyed application:

		"kubectl autoscale deployment <application_deployment_name> --min=3 --max=12 --cpu-percent=80"

*** Note *** 

	+ Traffic gen scripts must be executed on traffic gen machine

	+ Application on each node can be accessed using nodeip and port, e.g. 192.168.10.25:10000

- Section V_A - Evaluate 3 nodes

+ Use script "autoscaling_realTime_test" in experimental-script to test and get the result

- Section V_B - Evaluate 3 node

+ Use script "auto_ab_eva_node" in experimental-scripts/sectionV_B to generate traffic toward 3 nodes at the same time and get the results.

- Section V_C-1 - In this evaluation only Node 1 is evaluated

+ Use script "auto_ab_eva_node" in experimental-scripts/sectionV_C_1 to generate traffic toward node 1 only to get the result.

- Section V_C_2 - Evaluate 3 nodes

+ Use script "ab_test_cummulative_diff" and  "ab_test_cummulative_even" in 
experimental-scripts/sectionV_C_2 folder to get the result
