Abstract

There are many tools which can be used for practrical newtwork design and simulation, topology generation as well as for education. It Is often useful to move network models between the tools In order to obtain different view of the network. The output of the topology generation tool can be vizualized using the simulation tools as well as can be analysed the effects of the topology using analytical tools. This paper describes the way to communicate among them and presents a tool, Network Design and Simulation Environment (NeDaSE), developed for this purpose. Some experiments have been illustrated using topology generation tool BRITE, analytical tool Delite and simulation tool na-2. A network description language LNMet-X has been used for the Implementation.
