In fact! Our research experts are providing the wide-ranging research support for the research scholars to develop a research project using the best network simulator and this article about the selection of best network simulator.
List of Network Simulators
We have started this article with the list of network simulators along with its most significant uses and supportive domains.
- Cooja
- It is the cross layer java based wireless sensor network simulator distributed with Contiki and it is supportive for IoT based simulation
- Ns-3
- C and C++ based applications are running and it is assistive for VANET, MANET, USN, IoT and SDN based simulation
- Mininet
- It is denoted as the provision of extensible python API for network creation and experimentations and that is supportive for SDN based simulation
Best Network Simulator
As an additional note, while comparing the above mentioned network simulator Ns-3 is denoted as the best network simulator to create the customized models. For instance, we have highlighted the process of creating new modules for that we have to execute the below mentioned commands to create modules.
cd /home/research/ns-allinone-3.26/ns-3.26/src
sudo ./create-module.py NewModuleName
To configure and update the new modules we have to implement the below mentioned commands.
cd ..
sudo ./waf configure
sudo ./waf build
Now, you guys can start to develop a project using network simulator if you have any issues then reach us.
