Abstract
Simulation of computer networks is an area of growing interest. Network simulation is a multidisciplinary endeavor requiring expertise in computer networking, modeling and simulation, and software engineering. Network modeling and simulation tools in the research community provide important exemplar technology that has the potential for reuse. NetSim, developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is an excellent example of a network simulation infrastructure that can support a variety of modifications. In this paper we discuss NetSim and two additional tools: the Maryland Routing Simulator and the Texas A&M Asynchronous Transfer Mode Simulator, which are both modifications of NetSim. NetSim can serve as a simple but effective Ethernet or point-to-point network simulator. Additionally, NetSim can serve as a rapid prototyping tool for other network simulators.
