- NETSIM is a network simulator, which realistically models networking protocol standards, such as TCP/IP, WiFi, Zigbee etc.
- Queuing models are useful for understanding traffic flow phenomena in networks, but rarely exactly represent the behavior of networks
- A few open queuing models such as M/D/1, M/M/1, M/E/1, M/H/1, Tandem Queues etc can be contrived in a network simulator and will give accurate results. NETSIM can model these cases.
- The closest one can get to a closed queueing network in a network simulator would be to run a TCP session over two tandem links. One could send a very large file, in which the successive packet lengths are samples from exponential. This will give you a closed network in which in the forward direction the service time is exponential. At the destination node, there is a class change, and the reverse customers are the ACKs.
Can we do different kinds of open and closed network queuing in NetSim? Print
