Dear all,

We would like to try the new Theia Trace Viewer for JPF, which is Johan Besseling's Master's thesis project. In order to get as much feedback as possible, please try it out on half of your JPF tutorial exercises. (The results are not graded.)

A/B experiments

We would like you to try each trace with either plain JPF (having only its text output) or the Trace Viewer. In order to make sure that your learning experience with JPF does not give a clear advantage of one approach over the other, the tool usage is interleaved.

All you have to do is to access the server with the right URL, which is:
