Two Day National Level Workshop on NS-2 in Chennai

[Sri Ram]

About NS-2 :

NS or the network simulator (also popularly called NS-2, in reference
to its current generation) is a discrete event network simulator. NS
is used in the simulation of routing protocols, among others, and is
heavily used in ad-hoc networking research. ns supports popular
network protocols, offering simulation results for wired and wireless
networks alike. It is popular in research given its open source model
and online documentation. However, modeling is a very complex and
time-consuming task in ns-2, since it has no GUI and one needs to
learn scripting language, queuing theory and modeling techniques. Of
late, there have been complaints that results are not consistent
(probably because of continuous changes in the code base) and that
certain protocols are replete with bugs.

NS was built in C++ and provides a simulation interface through OTcl,
an object-oriented dialect of Tcl. The user describes a network
topology by writing OTcl scripts, and then the main NS program
simulates that topology with specified parameters.

Hi friends,

I heard that this workshop is for PG students and for others. So
before going through, first check it out whether it is valid for UG
students.

:-)

Cheers,
Sibi.
