    44This document is a draft specification for the User Interface to the Interference subsystem on the ORBIT indoor testbed. The Interference subsystem includes,
    55  * instrument hardware, which currently includes an Agilent ESG (Signal Generator) and a Spectrum analyzer,
    6   * instrument software, which includes all the Agilent libraries and tools required to control the instruments. The libraries and tools for the Agilent instruments reside on a Windows machine (instrument1) inside the ORBIT domain. The instrument hardware is connected to this machine over GPIB and Ethernet. It is possible to expose the functionality of the individual instruments using the provided libraries to a remote experimenter.
    7   * ORBIT service software, which will be the tool that exposes instrument functionality to experimenters. It is expected to run on the same Windows machine which is connected to the instruments and use the instrument-specific libraries. Since these libraries are available only for the [http://www.microsoft.com/net/default.mspx Microsoft .NET] platform, this service will also require atleast a part of it to be written on this platform. The languages used on this platform include [http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/ Microsoft Visual Basic] and [http://msdn.microsoft.com/vcsharp/ Microsoft C#].
