dc.description.abstract | Ns-2 and its successor ns-3 are discrete-event simulators which are closely related to each
other as they share common background, concepts and similar aims. Ns-3 is still under
development, but it offers some interesting characteristics for developers while ns-2 still
has a large user base. While other studies have compared different network simulators,
focusing on performance measurements, in this paper we adopted a different approach
by focusing on technical characteristics and using software metrics to obtain useful conclusions.
We chose ns-2 and ns-3 for our case study because of the popularity of the former in
research and the increasing use of the latter. This reflects the current situation where ns-3
has emerged as a viable alternative to ns-2 due to its features and design. The paper
assesses the current state of both projects and their respective evolution supported by
the measurements obtained from a broad set of software metrics. By considering other
qualitative characteristics we obtained a summary of technical features of both simulators
including, architectural design, software dependencies or documentation policies. | es |
