Introduction
Although the JiST/SWANS framework provides a great platform for simulation of ad-hoc wireless networks, the original developers have not continued development of new features. A group of motivated users had banded together to ensure that the SWANS platform continues to grow and attracts more users to take advantage of its performance benefits for more realistic and meaningful simulation results. The result is the SWANS++ distribution.
New features include:
- Runtime visualization
- GPSR implementation
- New DSR implementation
- Improved compatibility for NS-2 code
- New mobility models, including most recent version of STRAW (including lane-changing)
- ... and more
News
- 4/9/2007: Alpha version of SWANS++ released.
