-  * [[https://docs.docker.com/get-started/#images-and-containers|Docker images]] are used to package a full toolchain, such as gnuradio 3.8, gnuradio 3.7, or custom tools such as OpenBTS, [[https://www.openairinterface.org/|OpenAirInterface]] etc. Some images will be provided and maintained by the CorteXlab team, while others may be created by experimenters, possibly based on ours or not. This strongly relaxes the constraints on what experimenters can do on the platform. It is even possible to use a different linux distribution if needed (we did this for OpenBTS, which was much easier to build on Ubuntu Xenial than on Debian.+  * [[https://docs.docker.com/get-started/#images-and-containers|Docker images]] are used to package a full toolchain, such as gnuradio 3.8, gnuradio 3.7, or custom tools such as OpenBTS, [[https://www.openairinterface.org/|OpenAirInterface]] etc. Some images will be provided and maintained by the CorteXlab team, while others may be created by experimenters, possibly based on ours or not.

   * Preparing an image is a much more convenient process than preparing a task, when it comes to complex software bundles such as TensorFlow, OpenBTS, etc. One just needs to install dependencies and build as if it was a real machine, there is no need to tweak or hack build steps, it just works directly.   * Preparing an image is a much more convenient process than preparing a task, when it comes to complex software bundles such as TensorFlow, OpenBTS, etc. One just needs to install dependencies and build as if it was a real machine, there is no need to tweak or hack build steps, it just works directly.
   * Image preparation can be an interactive process, or it can be automated with a [[https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/|Dockerfile]]. The interactive way is nice for development and debug, and the automated way is an interresting step towards experimental reproducibility.   * Image preparation can be an interactive process, or it can be automated with a [[https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/|Dockerfile]].
