Network Simulation Creator and Animator (J-Nam) for NS-2
The Network Simulator (NS-2) is
one of the most widely used discrete event simulators for networking
research. NS-2 provides support for simulating various network and transport
layer protocols such as TCP, IP routing, and multicast over both wired and
wireless networks. Our tool, J-Nam, provides an improved interface to the NS-2 simulator by
graphically generating network simulation Tcl scripts and
animating simulation results on top of the network topology.
J-Nam is written in Java (Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 5.0 is required)
using the Java Swing API. Thus, J-Nam will run on any platform for which a Java
Virtual Machine (JVM) implementation exists.
J-Nam was created in the Department of Computer Science at the University
of Colorado at Boulder by Kevin Bauer and Pushkar Sambhoos under the direction of
Professor Douglas C. Sicker.
