 ESDS simulator comprises two major components: 1) The Simulation Orchestrator(SO) 2) The Simulated
 Nodes (SN). This architecture is depicted in Figure \ref{architecture}. The SO is the main process
 in charge of implementing the simulation main loop. It instantiates the network (e.g bandwidths
-andlatencies), collects and processes the events (e.g communications,turn on/off). The nodes on the
-other hand are threads that simulate the nodes behaviors.

+\section{Running your first simulation}
+
+To run a simulation, at least 2 files are required: 1) a platform file 2) a node implementation
+source code. The platform file defines the simulated network platform and sets various simulation
+parameters. The node implementation source code simply provide the logic of the simulated nodes.
+
+\subsection{Platform file}
+Platform files are written in YAML and contains 3 sections: 1) \textit{general} 2) \textit{nodes} 3) \textit{interfaces}.
+The \textit{general} section is optional but all the others must be present. Here is a simple platform file to simulate 2 wireless nodes:
+\addsource{assets/platform.yaml}{yaml}
+
+\subsection{Node implementation file}
+Nodes implementations are written using python. Here is the implementation of the node used in the previous platform.yaml file:
+\addsource{assets/node.py}{python}
+
+\subsection{Execution}
+To execute our first simulation, the following command should be executed from the same folder
+that contains \verb|platform.yaml| and \verb|node.py|:
+\begin{verbatim}
+  > esds run platform.yaml
+\end{verbatim}
+Here is the output of the simulation:
+\verbatiminput{assets/output.txt}
+In this case, simulation tooks $0.016s$ and $10$ bytes were sent on the wlan0 interface from node 0 (src=n0) to node 1 (src=n1).
