Yes, IMO, a "developer's guide" is in urgent need. Personally, I would like to contribute in explaining several wireless modules. However, we may need ask some developers get involved since they are the ones who know the code best. On 6/2/06, Ethan Giordano <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > IMO th

IMO the "user guides" are in a useable state already. What the ns community needs is a structured architecture document which clearly covers all of the different code components of ns as well as guides for ns development. Some of the problems arise from the fact that the addition of a new c

You might want to take a look at the Script "NS Simulator for Beginners" bei Eitan Altman and Tania Jimenez at http://www-sop.inria.fr/mistral/personnel/Eitan.Altman/COURS-NS/n3.pdf for a "User's Guide". If you want to spend time on improving documentation I think this is where you should st

A design decision like this can be accepted if it was supported by proper documentation, which is absolutely not the case for ns-2. IMHO, the biggest problem of ns-2 is lack of proper documentation. At least, there has to be two documents: a user's guide, and a developer's guide. ns manual is,

Hi, IMHO, the mixture of C++ and oTcl is the most annoying feature of NS which makes it really hard to understand the code. Best, Bo Wang On 5/31/06, Ahmad Khayyat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Just a tiny hint.. > > When you trace the code, don't forget that ns-2 is a mixture of C++ and >

Just a tiny hint.. When you trace the code, don't forget that ns-2 is a mixture of C++ and oTcl. Much of the object passing is done through oTcl. Faisal Siddiqui wrote: > Hi Paul, > > Thanks for the link. > > I totally agree with you. I have spent so much time trying to understand as > to how d

I'd recommend reading the ns-lib.tcl script through a few times. I added a lot of 'puts' lines in there to try and figure out what was going on. The next thing I did was add some text to each 'event' that the scheduler processed. I printed out the text and UID to get an idea of who was making

Hi Paul, Thanks for the link. I totally agree with you. I have spent so much time trying to understand as to how does the simulation flows through the source code, but can't really make any headways anymore. I am trying to implement a new control flow mechanism where no packet are dropped, but i

The proper link is: http://www.grid.unina.it/~vollero/resources/doc_ns2.27/html/index.html But the documentation there is limited at best. I'm in the same boat as you. I've spent a very long time trying to understand the passing of events around, how to switch between classifiers, etc. I'd love
