The activities on simulations will be carried out in OMNet++ environment.
Activities on simulation will be introduced by two classes on simulation concepts and OMNeT++ framework
- Introduction to simulation
- Introduction to OMNet++
The simulator can be downloaded here . Please select the correct version for your OS. It consists in a library of C++ classes for simulation and IDE (based on Eclipse) where you can develop your projects using the library. I’ve prepared a Virtual Machine, which runs Lubuntu (a lightweight Linux distribution), where everything is already installed and ready to use. You need to:
- Download the VM manager VirtualBox. A free application available for all OS. You need to download the host version
- Download the VM and install it in your VirtualBox (linux user password: markov)
In addition to the instructor’s introduction, you can find below additional material.
- OMNeT++ extended slide set (See WeBeep course)
- OMNeT++ Reference Manual : It’s the full manual. Once you know how to run basic OMNeT++, you can find every detail and sophisticated aspect on this page.
- OMNeT++ API Reference : It’s the perfect place where to find all classes and methods to call which are built in OMNeT framework.
- Tic-Toc Tutorial : It’s the best tutorial anyone wants to learn OMNeT++ should start from. It provides examples and code to follow step-by-step from a first simple project to a very sophisticated one. Videos:
- First Video : This video shows how to set up the first project in OMNeT by connecting a message source with a message sink.
- Second Video : This video extends the project developed in the first video by adding a queueing system Code:
- The examples folder of this repo includes the source code of Source-Sink, Source-Queue-Sink, and the projects seen during the Hands-on Activities lab.
