Dependencies

The core enabling technology that's used in this framework is Docker. Docker allows us to create self-contained portable environments that work accross different platforms. In order to keep the dependencies to a minmum and keep the whole environment portable, everything is run through Docker. The only requirement is:

• Follow these instructions to install Docker

Empirical directory

Empirical uses a directory to cache all the datasets downloaded and to save any files generated during the tests or experiments. This defaults to ~/empirical. You can change this by doing:

emp configure
