Project

Course project for the course IDATA2304 Computer communication and network programming (2023).

Project theme: a distributed smart greenhouse application, consisting of:

• Sensor-actuator nodes
• Visualization nodes

See protocol description in protocol.md.

Getting started

There are several runnable classes in the project.

To run the greenhouse part (with sensor/actuator nodes):

• Command line version: run the main method inside CommandLineGreenhouse class.
• GUI version: run the main method inside GreenhouseGuiStarter class. Note - if you run the GreenhouseApplication class directly, JavaFX will complain that it can't find necessary modules.

To run the control panel (only GUI-version is available): run the main method inside the ControlPanelStarter class

Simulating events

If you want to simulate fake communication (just some periodic events happening), you can run both the greenhouse and control panel parts with a command line parameter fake. Check out classes in the no.ntnu.run package for more details.
