Experiments

Things run to check a claim or rehearse a demo. Each experiment gets its own page: what was run, on which OTP/Elixir versions, and what it showed — including when it showed the opposite of what was expected.

Material Location What it is
Wire demo talk/code-samples/simple-epmd/wire_demo.exs Named processes that generate distribution traffic to inspect in Wireshark
Capture talk/code-samples/simple-epmd/initial-communication.pcapng Capture of a first connection between two nodes
epmd2 talk/epmd2/openspec/ Spec for an EPMD replacement — daemon, node registry, DNS/gossip/local discovery

Act 1 ends with a two-node demo: Node.connect/1, :rpc.call/4, Node.list/0. Record the exact commands and the backup recording’s location here once rehearsed.
