Integrating OMNeT++ with ns3
Status: attic
Veins has quickly become a de-facto standard simulation tool for research in vehicular networking. Around it, a broad ecosystem of simulation models has formed, each of which tackle specific challenges as complex as privacy, platooning, or misbehavior detection. All of these have in common that they are based on the same simulation engine, OMNeT++. Outside of the context of vehicular networking, much wireless networking research is also being conducted in the context of another simulation engine, ns-3. Little consideration, however, has so far been given to ways of using models written for one simulation engine in another.
Goals of the thesis
This thesis will investigate, then implement ways of integrating ns-3 simulation models in OMNeT++ simulations. A simulation study investigating the performance and scalability of such a hybrid simulation concludes the thesis.
