To test the DataCell, the distribution contains a simple event simulator. It generates a stream of MonetDB tuple values containing only random integers. Each tuple starts with a time stamp it has been created.
The actuator simulator provides the following options:
actuator [options]
--host=<host name>, default localhost
--port=<portnr>, default 50600
--protocol=<name> either tcp/udp, default tcp
--actuator=<actuator name> to identify the event received
--server run as a server (default)
--client run as a client
--events=<number> number of events to receive
--statistics=<number> show statistics after a series of events
