The size of the bytes field is 
the number of column * bytes/pixel * rows/tuple
These information are in the "isendconfig" file.

              Manul for sgen
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
sgen reads configuration information from a configration file and writes
the generated data to a file.

Usage:
sgen [output filename] [configuration filename]

eg:
sgen data1.dat config1.dat
   (use "config1" as defualt configuration file and output to "data1.dat")
sgen data1.dat
   (use "config" as defualt configuration file and output to "data1.dat")
sgen
   (use "config" as defualt configuration file and output to "data.dat")

Check the config file, you'll find what are those parameters. 
You can's change the order of these parameters.
Here are more explanation of the parameters you can set in config file
update interval: how many seconds, sensor report data
period2 start time: when the foe airplane/tank near the front turn west
period3 start time: when the foe airplane/tank near the from all pass
                    the front line 
endtime: when stop
Note, the unit for update interval is second. the unit for startime,
   endtime is number of updates.

You can also change the number of objects in each area and their id
range. 
Note, the ID for tanks are from 0 to 999. the ID for aircrafts are 1000+

              Manul for ssend
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ssend read data from a file and send them to aurora. 

Usage:
ssend hostname port filename

hostname: machine name where aurora runs. You can use localhost if same machine
port: aurora port number for input
filename: data file name

eg: 
ssend localhost 12000 data1.dat
ssend ariel@cs.brown.edu 12000 data1.dat

              Manul for isend
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
isend send image files to Aurora as tuples.

Usage:
isend hostname port

Configuration file: isendconfig

config : a configuration file. I use all the numbers in the handout
config1: a configuration file with very small number of objects and last
         only a short time. 
data.dat : data generated using config. very long. real data
data1.dat: data generated using config1. short.
