This post shows you how to install aquasim in ns3. Aquasim is a simulator used for simulating underwater Wireless Sensor networks which was used with ns2 earlier, and now it is available for ns3 too. OS Used: Linux Mint 18.1 or Ubuntu 16.04 Ns version used: ns-3.27 Assumption: You should have installed ns3 before trying the following. Please follow the ns3 installation instructions here . Open the terminal and give the following instructions. $] cd ns-allinone-3.27/ns-3.27/src $] git clone https://github.com/rmartin5/aqua-sim-ng.git $] cd .. $] ./waf --enable-examples --enable-tests configure --disable-python $] ./waf  Once successful, you will get a screen like this which indicates that aquasim is installed successfully in ns3. Aquasim in ns3 To test an example, go to the folder ~ns-3.27/src/aqua-sim-ng/examples/ and copy the file broadcastMAC_example.cc to the scratch/ folder and type the command to run the example. $]  cd ns-allinone-3.27/ns-3...

This post serves the installation instructions of ns3 in ubuntu 16.04 version. Some of my students are working in ns3, this post will benefit them in installing ns3. OS Used: Ubuntu 16.04.4 ns3 version: ns3 version 3.27 The same procedure will be applied for OS like Debian, Linux Mint. Fresh installation of Ubuntu 16.04 Let you try the fresh installation of ubuntu in your hard disk along with windows. Installation of ns3 dependencies ns3 needs so many dependencies, developmental libraries, drivers, etc. so install all those $] sudo apt update  $] sudo apt upgrade $] sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libxmu-dev python-pygoocanvas python-pygraphviz cvs mercurial bzr git cmake p7zip-full python-matplotlib python-tk python-dev python-kiwi python-gnome2 python-gnome2-desktop-dev python-rsvg qt4-dev-tools qt4-qmake qt4-qmake qt4-default gnuplot-x11 wireshark The above command make take some time to download, compile and install it, Be P...

RPL protocol for Internet of Things is called as Routing Protocol for Low Power Lossy Networks. The following video depicts the use of RPL in Contiki OS with COOJA Framework. The simulation was carried out using sky motes.  These are the modules that are used as firmware. ~contiki-2.7/examples/ipv6/rpl-border-router/border-router.c (This firmware is used for one of the sky mote) ~contiki-2.7/examples/skywebsense/skywebsense.c (this is programmed with other 5 nodes) Please refer the video for more details.

The following three slides gives the importance of internet of things. These are basic slides that features IoT Applications IoT Communication Protocols  RPL - Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks RPL - Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks from Pradeep Kumar TS, PhD IoT Applications from Pradeep Kumar TS, PhD IoT Communication Protocols from Pradeep Kumar TS, PhD T S Pradeep Kumar

I have gone across more than 80 institutions in the country to give hands on session, workshop, seminars related to network simulator 2. Mostly I will try different simulations, different models for simulation, etc. But basically, every researcher/students needs some basics to get to know about ns2. These slides make you understand the basics of ns2. Still in the country, there are so many universities uses ns2 as their simulated platform for the networking course, wireless networks course, etc. reading these slides make you know the basics of ns2. These slides can be downloaded from my slideshare profile.
