This project developes self-explanatory laboratory sessions that demonstrate some problems and solutions of flexible wireless communications using the ALOE framework and tools. It is the fastest way to experience ALOE. ALOE Sessions 1 to 6 are currently available for ALOE version 1.3. Please  follow the download and install instructions described in ALOE Session 1.

  * '''Introduction to ALOE''': [attachment:Session-1.pdf ALOE Session 1] introduces ALOE and guides the installation of the framework on a POSIX-based (Linux) execution environment. The main objective is providing a summary of the basic ALOE concepts and functionalities as the basis for the following sessions.

  * '''Creating a Waveform''': [attachment:Session-2.pdf ALOE Session 2] demonstrates the basic ALOE functionalities. You will learn how to create and run a custom waveform based on a set of independent objects.

  * '''Creating Components''': [attachment:Session-3.pdf ALOE Session 3] exemplifies how to create and debug a simple waveform component. After this session you will be able to design digital signal processing blocks for ALOE.

  * '''ALOE User Interface (aloeUI)''': [attachment:Session-4.pdf ALOE Session 4] shows how to use the ALOE graphical user interface (aloeUI) for loading, initializing, and running a waveform and visualizing or modifying statistics (waveform states and variables).

  * '''Multiprocessing''': In [attachment:Session-5.pdf ALOE Session 5] you will configure a multiprocessor platform to be managed by ALOE.

  * '''Creating Waveform Components with Simulink''': [attachment:Session-6.pdf ALOE Session 6] provides hands-on experience on creating waveform components from a Simulink model. It explains how to automatically generating the C code implementation for ALOE.

  * '''Computing Resource Management Framework''': [attachment:Session-7.pdf ALOE Session 7] introduces ALOE's computing resource management framework. It is independent of the previous ALOE Sessions and does not require the download and installation of the ALOE middleware.

  * '''Computing Resource Management Tools''': [attachment:Session-8.pdf ALOE Session 8] presents a set of computing resource management tools. These tools help understanding and analyzing ALOE’s computing resource management decisions. The session is independent of the others; it requires Matlab.
