Performance Analysis of Large-scale Networks in Ns-2

Abstract

Wired communication refers to data transmission over a wire-based communication technology. Also, in computer engineering terms, a network is defined as a group of computers connected to share information or services (print services, multitasking, etc.). In this paper, the performance of a wired network that consists of more than 300 nodes which implement as an example of a big organization (i.e., Sakarya University), is investigated and analyzed by simulations using a network simulator tool (Ns2). The analysis depends on many performance metrics such as throughput, delay, Jitter, etc. Results show that modeled network has enough performance in different scenarios.
