| Brief Description |
The Network Emulation Testbed
(NET) provides a powerful, flexible infrastructure for the comparative
performance analysis of distributed applications and protocols.
It basically consists of a 64-node cluster system, connected
by a flexible networking infrastructure. Each of the cluster nodes
is able to represent one or more (e.g. internet) nodes, running existing
or experimental protocols and applications. The network infrastructure
can be set up in arbitrary ways, emulating anything from Wide Area
Networks (WANs) to highly dynamic Mobile AdHoc Networks (MANETs).
Thus, NET makes up a valuable tool for research, engineering,
and educational purposes. Currently, most users of NET are researchers
at Distributed Systems department at the University of Stuttgart,
accompanied by students testing their protocol implementations during
the "computer communications" lab course, which is offered each term.
We would explicitly like to invite researchers from other research
institutes to contact us if they also want to use NET for their measurements.
