Abstract :
We present MAdSim-a environment tailored for mobile ad-hoc network simulation. Users and designers can use it for design, analysis and performance evaluation of their mobile ad-hoc network configuration. The input to MAdSim includes the system parameters, the network architecture, communication protocols (standard and user-defined). MAdSim presents, using graphics and text, performance metrics such as total routing and rerouting time, disruption time, buffering requirements, etc. These aid the user in evaluating the system´s performance. MAdSim is being developed for PC based systems using MS Visual C++ 5.0 and MFC under Windows 95/NT
