GloMoSim swMATH ID: 13764 Software Authors: Xiang Zeng; Rajive Bagrodia; Mario Gerla Description: GloMoSim: A Library for Parallel Simulation of Large-scale Wireless Networks. A number of library based parallel and sequential network simulators have been designed. The paper describes a library, called GloMoSim (Global Mobile system Simulator), for parallel simulation of wireless networks. GloMoSim has been designed to be extensible and composable: the communication protocol stack for wireless networks is divided into a set of layers, each with its own API. Models of protocols at one layer interact with those at a lower (or higher) layer only via these APIs. The modular implementation enables consistent comparison of multiple protocols at a given layer. The parallel implementation of GloMoSim can be executed using a variety of conservative synchronization protocols, which include the null message and conditional event algorithms. The paper describes the GloMoSim library, addresses a number of issues relevant to its parallelization, and presents a set of experimental results on the IBM 9076 SP, a distributed memory multicomputer. These experiments use models constructed from the library modules Homepage: http://www.scalable-networks.com/pdf/glomosim.pdf Related Software: Parsec; ns-2; OMNet++; SWiMNet; PCBA; OPNET; Network Simulator 2; QualNet; Flask; Pastry; EOMP; Maude; APMC; VESTA; PMaude; Uppaal; IF-2.0; Kronos; AspectJ; SCRIBE Cited in: 37 Documents all top 5 Cited by 100 Authors 3 Gerla, Mario 2 Badache, Nadjib 2 Derhab, Abdelouahid 2 Fang, Yuguang 2 Garcia-Luna-Aceves, Jose Joaquin 2 Lou, Wenjing 2 Manoj, B.
