Download the latest "ScatterWeb on ns-2" package. Since version 0.1 it includes all the documentation and patches. Follow the instructions in the package to run a ScatterWeb simulation on ns-2.

• scatterweb_on_ns-2-0.8.tgz
• scatterweb_on_ns-2-0.7.1.tgz
• scatterweb_on_ns-2-0.7.tgz

For those only interested in the results, there are also a ns-2 trace and a nam trace (both gzipped) available which document how ns-2 is running the ScatterWeb implementation of the directed diffusion paradigm. A screenshot of nam playing back this ScatterWeb simulation is shown below. Finally, there are also two videos of the simulation.

• nam trace: scatterweb_on_ns-2_running_directed_diffusion.nam.gz

This simulation software was written by a student at the FU-Berlin in 2008. The main goal of this software is to have a simulation tool that is easy to use and highly functional.

The main features are:

• simulation of wireless sensor networks in realtime
• integration of real sensor nodes during runtime.
• a component (object oriented) aproach: with defined interfaces and classes that a valid sensor node has to implemet or inherit from.
• grafical user interface (GUI): create networks, configuring the prameters of your nodes and displaying the progress of the simulation.
• background picture editor: load and edit pictures (i.e. floor plans or maps) into the simulation software
• calculate and display the broadcast range of all nodes that are simulated as a cloud in 2D
• simulation-data recording for later evaluation espacially network-traffic with energie-consumption on the basis of end-to-end connections.
