Introduction to Network Simulator NS2 (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This is a beginners' guide for network simulator NS2, an open-source discrete event simulator designed mainly for networking research. NS2 is been widely accepted as a reliable simulation tool for computer communication networks both in academia and industry. Surprisingly, there has been no book by which researchers and students can learn NS2. This is due to the absence of any comprehensive tutorial on NS2 and the fact that the resources available on NS2 (through online) are quite limited. The major objective of this book is to fill in this vacuum. Intended for researchers in industry working in the area of communication networks, the book will be also valuable to senior undergraduate students and graduate students working in the area of communication networking/wireless networks.

Rezensionen

From the reviews of the second edition:

"This book on ns-2 can be used as a reference by researchers, as well as by undergraduate and postgraduate students. It will be useful for courses related to computer networks. ... It has added exercises at the end of the chapters that are meant to be used for assignments, lab exercises, and exam questions. ... I recommend this book for all those who are using ns-2 or plan to use it in the future. It will serve as a useful reference." (S. V. Nagaraj, ACM Computing Reviews, January, 2013)

"The book is designed to be a primer for the network simulator NS2. ... This textbook is written for researchers who need to use NS2 for simulation-based communication network performance evaluation. It can also be used as a reference for laboratory work for a senior undergraduate or graduate course on telecommunication networks." (IEEE Control Systems Magazine, June, 2012)
