Complex Network Modeling with an Emulab HPC

Abstract

To support DoD networks in the field next generation complex network product designs need to be evaluated for optimum performance. Network emulation plays an important role in evaluating these next generation complex network product designs. From the component level to the system-of-systems level, emulation enables evaluation in a real system context, greatly reducing the cost and time of testing and validation throughout the design cycle. For accurate network synthesis, emulation must support real-time speed, full packet fidelity, and provide transparency.
