Netsim is a mobile ad hoc network simulator targeted at large heterogeneous node configurations. It is written in Java and is easily extensible through its modular concept.

UM-OLSR is an OLSR (Optimized Link State Routing protocol) implementation for the ns2 network simulator.

The goal of this project is to be an improvement of the original Network Animator (NAM) module provided as part of the Network Simulator 2 (NS2). This tool provides topology visualization, TCL script generation, and enhanced simulation animation.

The Common Open Research Emulator (CORE) is a tool for emulating networks on one or more machines. You can connect these emulated networks to live networks. CORE consists of a GUI for drawing topologies of lightweight virtual machines, and Python modules for scripting network emulation.

For new versions, check https://github.com/Darkkey/javaNetSim javaNetSim (Java Network Simulator) - it's a fork of a project jFirewallSim. The main goal of javaNetSim is creating a software to simulate various TCP/IP networks based on Ethernet, WiFi, PPP, etc...

Script to install Network Simulator 2 with the compiler version gcc-4.6 on Ubuntu 12.04

JBotSim is a multipurpose dynamic network simulator that allows to quickly prototype a distributed algorithm and test its behavior on a set of static or mobile nodes. If mobile, the nodes can be controlled by the mouse or by program.

This is a network simulator. This is meant to be user friendly as well as feature rich. This field lacks software with good user interface. Even the commercial softwares in this field is quite lame. This aimed to go along Multisim(R) and Blender(R) form

This software is designed to simulate a WDM gridless and elastic network.

This is an implementation of the Granular Neural Network architecture defined by S. Dick, A. Tappenden, C. Badke, O. Olarewaju. It is provided for the use of the public, and the convenience of researchers who may wish to develop or use this new system.

AWNetS(Aibear Wireless Network Simulator)is a C++ written,fire-new discrete-event wireless network simulator which integrates network and communication simulations.It also focuses on various kinds of wireless networks including satellite and HAP.

In an optical network scenario which consists of multiple nodes (whiteboxes) at its edges and ROADMs in-between, the coherent transceiver average laser configuration time is improved. The process is evaluated according to a testbed setup. This is facilitated in the appropriate lab equipment (or via simulation when required). For that purpose, a software agent (Netconf server) residing at the whiteboxes, is developed receiving input from the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) packet controller (PacketCTL - a Netconf client). Then, configuration of the local transceiver laser frequencies of the controlled pluggable devices takes place, for facilitating the connectivity in-between the ROADM network. Also, the agent records and reports back telemetry data (feedback) which is used by the PacketCTL's resource-allocating mechanism to improve efficiency within the network topology.

BlueHoc is an open source Bluetooth technology simulator. It simulates the baseband and link layers of the Bluetooth specifications.

Wireless Sensor Network Simulator Castalia is a simulator for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), Body Area Networks (BAN) and generally networks of low-power embedded devices. It is based on the OMNeT++ platform and can be used by researchers and developers who want to test their distributed algorithms and/or protocols in realistic wireless channel and radio models, with a realistic node behaviour especially relating to access of the radio. Castalia can also be used to evaluate different platform characteristics for specific applications, since it is highly parametric, and can simulate a wide range of platforms.

Cervelletto is a neural network simulator. It uses a new neural model based on biological, neurological and psychological studies. [it's not yet completed... just give me some weeks! sorry!]

This project is based on a personal effort for researches on dynamics of coevovling networks. As a physicist, I am trying to build a framework for discrete-time dynamics of general networks, and its software libraries with APIs.

Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) for Network Simulator.

This project provides DiffServ simulations improvements for the Network Simulator 2. The current version works for NS2 version 2.29

This project deals with the implementation of a Fisheye State Routing (FSR) module for the network simulator ns-2. It can be integrated into ns-2 to simulate mobile ad hoc networks using FSR for routing data packets.

GNNS - GNNS Neural Network Simulator, is both a set of libraries and an interface for creating and learning neural networks. It is aimed to support as many network typs and learning algorithms as possible. GNNS is meant to support different platforms.

A Graphical Editor and Animator for the ns-2 Network Simulator.

GatcomSUMO is a multi-platform application that facilitates the building of VANET simulations using the SUMO traffic simulator and the OMNeT++ network simulator. The tasks related to the generation of abstract or synthetic scenarios, the download and conversion of network scenarios based on real maps (e.g. from OpenStreetMap), the route creation process, and the vehicles mobility modelling are integrated in a user-friendly graphical interface. This tool performs the necessary actions by invoking the set of utilities included in SUMO, saving the user from typing complex command-line orders. GatcomSUMO visualizes the network and routes easily, and they are created in such a way to meet the requirements of the involved simulators, in particular OMNeT++, in order to avoid misunderstandings and runtime errors. The application allows the conversion of the spatial coordinates used by SUMO into those used by OMNeT++, which is essential to place fixed elements like RSUs.
