| | 3 | This page describes the model, specification and implementation of DETER's topology description. A topology is the layout of an experment's physcial or logical environment including the topologies of its control and data networks. |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | Because DETER experiments are intended to be large - thousands or millions of entities - DETER's topology system must support large scale |

| | 7 | * Specification |
| | 8 | * Operations - realize, initialize, etc. |
| | 9 | * Visualization |

| | 11 | We describe a model that suports these, an API that describes how to use the model and an initial implementation in the Descartes interface. |
