Research-Related Software Artifacts

As part of my research, I implement new networking protocols, as well as other software such as network interface device drivers to help test and evaluate these protocols. This code, by nature, tends to be for testing purposes, and has generally not been tested for robustness through a rigorous release engineering process. As a result, it is both unsupported and potentially unstable. They are generally released under the BSD license, under which there is NO WARRANTY, express or implied.
  • Monarch wireless and mobile extensions to the ns-2 network simulator. Distributed with standard public release of ns-2 since version 2.1b7. Original code available from The Monarch Project; current code from ISI. Joint work with Josh Broch, David A. Maltz, and Jorjeta G. Jetcheva.

  • Caching improvements and Implicit Source Routing for DSR for ns-2. Caching improvements distributed with standard public release of ns-2 since version 2.1b9. Available from The Monarch Project.

  • Quality-of-Service extensions to the Monarch FreeBSD DSR implementation. Includes driver modifications to make use of link-layer acknowledgement. Available from The Monarch Project.

  • Ariadne and SEAD simulations for ns-2. Available from The Monarch Project.

  • Link-Layer Source Routing (LLSR), an implementation of DSR at the link-layer for Windows XP. Serves as the basis for the Microsoft Mesh Connectivity Layer, available from Microsoft Research. Joint work with the Systems and Networking group at Microsoft Research.
