8. ns2 Aim: Support networking research and education For protocol design, traffic studies Free open source - on Linux, Windows and Mac Includes Wired networks Routing Distance Vector (DV), Link States (LS) Transportation: TCP and UDP Traffic: Ftp, Telnet, Cbr (Constant bit ratess) Queuing models: Drop-tail, RED QoS support frameworks: IntServ and Diffserv Wireless networks Ad hoc routing protocols (AODV, DSR) and mobile IP Directed diffusion, sensor-MAC Utilities for tracing and visualization Details: http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/

9. Qualnet A good simulator for studying networks A commercial version - we have 5 licenses at DBH. Rapid prototyping of protocols with GUI tools and the modular, layered sta ck design Scalability via support for parallel execution Includes Many types of networks: Wired and wireless (WLANs, Cellular, Ad hoc) Various existing protocols (good for comparative performance evaluation) Easy for tracing and visualization. More scalable than ns2 (support thousands of nodes) www.scalable-networks.com/products/qualnet/

10. OverSim http://www.oversim.org/ OverSim is a C++ based open-source overlay and peer-to-peer network simulation framework for the OMNet++ simulation environment. Built-in Modules : Structured (Chord, Pastry, Bamboo, Koorde, Broose, Kademlia), Unstructured (GIA) P2P and other Overlay Protocols (NICE, NTree, Quon, Vast, Publish-Subscribe for MMOGs) You can add a C++ module to run your own protocol on OverSim

11. PeerSim http://peersim.sourceforge.net/ PeerSim is a Java-based peer-to-peer system simulator with two simulation engines (a cycle- based and an event driven). Built-in Modules: Pastry, Chord, Kademlia, Skpnet, Bittorrent, TMan, Cloudcast. You can build a java package of your own protocol to run on PeerSim.
