A Customizable Simulator for Workstation Networks

Abstract

We present a customizable simulator called netsim for high-performance point-to-point work-station networks that is accurate enough to be used for application-level performance analysis yet is easy enough to customize for multiple architectures and software configurations. Customization is accomplished without using any proprietary information, using only publicly available hardware specifications and information that can be readily determined using a suite of test programs.
