Quoting the website from the ITP:
"What are these tools good for? Mainly for controlling large 
collections of nodes in the wide-area, where faster 
alternatives such as GEXEC and PCP are not available. For 
example, I use these tools on a fairly routine basis on 
PlanetLab to control hundreds of machines spread around the 
world."

Cheers
Nico
