Abstract
The project discussed here provides a general tool, the architecture of which allows to emulate various network configurations, and to implement various synchronization algorithms for distributed control, distributed data or functions. This emulation enables the measurement of various characteristics of these algorithms: resiliency, overhead, fairness, response time and so on. This tool resides in a physically local network, built with homogeneous microcomputers. The desired network is simulated on this physical network. The topology of the physical network supporting the simulation is a star. The central node is considered from the other satellite computers as a simple transport medium which emulates the links of the required network to which each one is connected. In the central node a simple interpreter performs the desired emulated network (loop, mutidrop, mesh….) by consulting a description of the links of this network. The simulation is made, using 3 layers of software in the central node emulator:
