declarative networking engine with the emerging ns-3 network simulator. The same declarative specifications can also be used as actual implementations using the ns-3 network emulator, hence providing a bridge between simulation and testbed-based experimentation. We demonstrate that RapidMesh enables a variety

Efficient Querying and Maintenance of Network Provenance at Internet-Scale

by Wenchao Zhou, Micah Sherr, Tao Tao, Xiaozhou Li, Boon Thau Loo , Yun Mao , 2010
"... Network accountability, forensic analysis, and failure diagnosis are becoming increasingly important for network management and security. Such capabilities often utilize network provenance – the ability to issue queries over network meta-data. For example, network provenance may be used to trace the ..."

provenance efficiently. The ExSPAN prototype is developed using Rapid-Net, a declarative networking platform based on the emerging ns-3 toolkit. Experiments over a simulated network and an actual deployment in a testbed environment demonstrate that our system supports a wide range of distributed provenance

Huginn: A 3D Visualizer for Wireless ns-2 Traces

by Björn Scheuermann, Holger Füßler, Matthias Transier, Marcel Busse, Martin Mauve, Wolfgang Effelsberg - In Proceedings of the 8th ACM International Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Wireless and Mobile Systems (MSWiM , 2005
"... Discrete-event network simulation is a major tool for the research and development of mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). These simulations are used for debugging, teaching, understanding, and performance-evaluating MANET protocols. For the first three tasks, visualization of the processes occurring in ..."

Wireless Mesh Software Defined Networks (wmSDN)

by Andrea Detti, Claudio Pisa, Stefano Salsano, Nicola Blefari-melazzi
"... Abstract—In this paper we propose to integrate Software Defined Networking (SDN) principles in Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) formed by OpenFlow switches. The use of a centralized network controller and the ability to setup arbitrary paths for data flows make SDN a handy tool to deploy fine-grained tr ..."
