Questions about the multi-protocol SCADA ns-3 simulation result data

[Thái Ngô]

Hi there, I'm trying to do this topic "Optimization of SCADA Data Flow in Multi-Protocol Networks using Machine Learning Algorithms" for the thesis.

My goal is to develop a multi-protocol SCADA network simulation model on ns-3, then apply Decision Tree & Random Forest to classify data traffic. I tried to implement a SCADA network with multiple protocol (including Modbus, DNP3, OPC-UA, IEC 104 and MQTT). And I made a plan to visualize it for a 3-phase period: normal, high-load, and emergency. The visualization worked fine, but after watching the .csv output file, the packet-loss during every phase always remains as 0, which is weird and unrealistic.

Also, I really wanted to know if the output was realistic enough to help me accomplish my initial goal. Has there anyone in this group done the same topic as me? If yes, then please discuss with me for references. Or please suggest me what to do to make the data more realistic, since I've been struggled for 2 weeks.

I'll include the ns-3 code .cc and the data file .csv in this message for clarity.
