Case Study of the Most-widely Used Computer Network Simulator

Nowadays, modeling and evaluation are among the important branches in computer networks. Almost everybody engaged in computer engineering and information technology has worked with computer network simulators, which was probably a very difficult experience because they had not selected the correct tools. This article introduces the widely used simulator ns2.0 together with its auxiliary software, such as the NSG, the Trace Graph, the Visual Trace Analyzer, and the MOVE software, that make it easier to work with this simulator. This will help those who want to work with it become completely familiarized with the simulator, and with its tools, so that they can use it with ease and confidence.
