It has to be decided how Streamix libraries are going to be distributed.

A few options come to mind:

The latter might struggle to cope with an RT-patch on the linux kernel. This paper might provide a solution for this.

deb and docker are not mutually exclusive: deb could be used for dependency management and version handling while docker could be used for deployment of experiments. Given that I plan to release each box implementation as a separate package deb is much more suited to handle this than docker is (due to multiple and hierarchical dependencies, docker was never intended as a package manager): StackExchange Question on the topic.

Conclusion: In a first step I will use deb packages. Later, it might be interesting to use docker for deploying experiments on non-deb-systems.
