We configured an experimental hardware setup modeling a complete cloud installation according to the topology shown in Figure 4.1. In this topology, the controller node, the network node, and the compute nodes are on separate physical cores. The servers are housed at at Rangsit University. This system is currently used for research only. We use one cloud controller node that can distribute computational tasks to the four compute nodes running the object detection application, and one network node to manage message sending, receiving, and forwarding.
