To run the system you need Java 6, maven. Then:

1) Compile and run test server ./server.sh

2) navigate to http://localhost:8080/ (where 127.0.0.1 is the machine ip address) for a greeter

to start nodes on a headless server you may use...

xvfb-run google-chrome "http://localhost:8080/static/exampleapp/app.html"
