Abstract

The basic concept and evolution of the network simulator (NS) is discussed. MPLS Network Simulator (MNS) and Wireless Mobile Networking are described with emphasis on conceptual model and architecture. Current NS compatibility issues and shortcomings are considered and a potential development plan is proposed. NS enhancement strategies in terms of enriching various modules with MPLS and HMIPv6 functionalities are proposed and novel schematic embedding algorithms are shown. © 2006 by Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
