FARnodes 1.0

FARnodes is a protocol simulation and execution environment. FARnodes project comes with a command-line frontend, a protocol code distribution manager, and a statistical analyser based on PyKDE.
Example algorithms like Consensus and several other small tools and a big chunk of documentation make this a suitable entry-level software for people who have some interest in this (somewhat academic) area.
Main features:
- High portability and easy extensibility of the framework due to a pure Python implementation.
- Protocols can assume either fully synchronous or asynchronous systems, or one of FAR (Finite Average Response times) or PS (Partial Synchrony).
- Channels can exhibit unreliable or stubborn behaviour.
- Failure detectors include EA-FD and PS-FD, both eventually perfect, but others can be added.
- Simulations can expect a virtual timer and can be saved and reloaded in many cases.
- Tools for remote execution and graphical data analysis.
