Motivation
|
Akaroa-2 [1] is a powerful tool
supporting discrete event simulations:
- It analyze the
observations at runtime and decides to start collecting data (in order
not to include initialization effects) and stops the simulation when
is has enough observations to calculate an estimate of the required
precision.
- It can speed up simulations using multiple
replications in parallel or MRIP.
Currently
both features are not present in OMNeT++ [2] and implementing these
algorithms by hand is complicated and error-prone. Therefore it seems
to be a good idea to integrate the Akaroa2 capabilities into
OMNeT++.
This site contains a Akaroa packet for Linux (most
work done by Holger Woesner), a documentation about integrating
Akaroa2 and OMNeT++ and an example for using Akaroa2 with
OMNeT++.
