Dear all,
Does any body know about the start_time in the END
procedure of LWood awk script to calculate packet
average end-to-end delay?
where does the start_time in the END proc. get from?

BEGIN {
   # simple awk script to generate end-to-end packet
lifetime statistics
   # in a form suitable for plotting with xgraph.
   # Lloyd Wood, July 1999.
   # http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Personal/L.Wood/ns/

highest_packet_id = 0;
}
         
{
   action = $1;
   time = $2;
   node_1 = $3;
   node_2 = $4;
   src = $5;
   flow_id = $8; 
   node_1_address = $9;
   node_2_address = $10; 
   seq_no = $11;
   packet_id = $12;


   if ( packet_id > highest_packet_id )
highest_packet_id = packet_id;

   # getting start time is not a problem, provided
you're not starting
   # traffic at 0.0.
   # could test for sending node_1_address or flow_id
here.
   if ( start_time[packet_id] == 0 ) 
start_time[packet_id] = time;
   
   # only useful for small unicast where packet_id
doesn't wrap.
   # checking receive means avoiding recording drops
   if ( action != "d" ) {
      if ( action == "r" ) {
         # could test for receiving node_2_address or flow_id
here.
         end_time[packet_id] = time;
      }
   } else {
      end_time[packet_id] = -1;
   }
}       
END {
    for ( packet_id = 0; packet_id <=
highest_packet_id; packet_id++ ) {
       start = start_time[packet_id];
       end = end_time[packet_id];
       packet_duration = end - start;

       if ( start < end ) printf("%d %f\n", start,
packet_duration);
   }

We dont have any start time in the format of trace
file  generated by ns! Actually sending a packet from
a node is not captured as a send event.
