Network Simulator Description

A discrete event simulator targeted at networking research Network Simulator (Ns) is a discrete event simulator targeted at networking research. Ns provides substantial support for simulation of TCP, routing, and multicast protocols over wired and wireless (local and satellite) networks.Ns began as a variant of the REAL network simulator in 1989 and has evolved substantially over the past few years. In 1995 ns development was supported by DARPA through the VINT project at LBL, Xerox PARC, UCB, and USC/ISI.Currently ns development is support through DARPA with SAMAN and through NSF with CONSER, both in collaboration with other researchers including ACIRI. Ns has always included substantal contributions from other researchers, including wireless code from the UCB Daedelus and CMU Monarch projects and Sun Microsystems. What's New in This Release: ns-2.34 is mainly a maintenance release with the following major differences from ns-2.33: · 1) AOMDV (On-demand Multipath Distance Vector Routing in Ad Hoc · Networks) implementation · 2) Tmix synthetic Internet traffic generation tool · 3) Collection of bug fixes for 802.11Ext model · In addition, the recent Linux distributions (especially Fedora Core 10) started to have problems with the previous releases, so there are some fixes aimed at better 64-bit support and support for Fedora Core 10.
