A valid command must contain all required libs, that the simulator uses. I
think, that your version of PeerfactSim.KOM needs more than that one
library. In order to include all libs to run a simulation, use "lib/*"
instead. A further problem is the separation character, which is ":" on
unix systems and ";" on Windows systems. So a valid command, with enough
memory to run large simulations can look like:
java -Xms1000M -Xmx3000M -cp lib/*:bin de.tud.kom.p2psim.SimulatorRunner
config/chord.xml

This error occurs, since no parameter is provided, which specifies the
config-file for a simulation during the start of the simulator. You must
provide a config-file to omit the error.

Hi there,
I wanted to run a simulation of 10000 nodes remotely on the Tres computer,
but I have some problem running the compiled program of Peerfactsim-project:

My program runs without problem in eclispe on my laptop. But I want to copy
the compiled files and run it on Tres.

At first, I copied the whole project to Tres,
then I go to the root folder of the project : PeerfactSim.KOM-Main
>From there I run:
        java -classpath ./bin;./lib/commons-math-1.1.jar
de.tud.kom.p2psim.SimulatorRunner  config/chord.xml
I was told that this command is not in correct form.
I've no idea where the error was...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later I tried to export the Peerfactsim-project to a runnable jar file.
I uesed the Export function of eclipse.
but when I run the Jar file, I was told:

    log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger
(de.tud.kom.p2psim.impl.simengine.Simulator).
    log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 1
    at
de.tud.kom.p2psim.SimulatorRunner.parseVariables(SimulatorRunner.java:351)
    at de.tud.kom.p2psim.SimulatorRunner.main(SimulatorRunner.java:338)

Can anyone tell me how to generate a runnable file of the simulator ?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

(a)
I had memory problems with the default JVM settings and wondered whether 
you put a lot of effort in playing with different parameters. I ended up 
with the JDK JVW and -server -Xmx1024m (-Xmx3g linux) on a 4GB quad core 
running windows vista 64bit (32bit jdk) and ubuntu 64bit (64bit jdk). 
This solved basic problems I had with a few simulations in the 
GUIRunner. I am still unable to run the Gnutella setups with 1000 and 
10000 nodes. I am not sure whether I want to simulate networks of that 
size but would be interested in knowing what to do to run them.

(b)
Do you happen to have a document going into the details regarding the 
possibilities and syntax of the .dat and .xml files in the /config/ 
directory? I found a document with information about the visualization 
and was afraid I might have missed a document about that or is the 
general advice to check the java doc regarding these files?

(c)
I was looking for an ant file (checked out the project from sf.net cvs) 
to build a jar to easily export it to a more powerful workstation and 
run it outside of eclipse. Have you done that in the past? The CVS got 
two ant files but neither is for a jarfile build process. Maybe if you 
figured out how to run it on an average workstation I will not have to 
worry about that.

(d)
Skipping through the eclipse-ant.xml it looks as if you have a Pastry 
implementation in your build path. Is that one ready to make it into the 
distribution so Pastry would be available as an overlay in a future release?

Best regards,
Wulf

Hi,

I am not a member of the team but checked out the simulator this week 
for a thesis and subscribed to the mailing list. You might want to check 
out http://peerfact.kom.e-technik.tu-darmstadt.de/ as it provides 
answers to most of your questions. I assume you found the project on 
sourceforge.net and did not know about the webpage.

Best regards,
Wulf

Hello!

My name is Varvara Kapourani and I am a PhD student from Greece studying p2p networks. 
I am interesting in using your p2p simulator (PeerfactSim.KOM) for my work and I would really appreciated if you could help me by answering in some questions and provide me any available material; firstly, I’d like to know if there is a tutorial that guides someone on how to install, configure and use the simulator - I could use a reference as a start point.

Hi Jonas,

Can somebody tell me how the churn model is used for a p2p overlay?

1. Implement a churn model by your own => Generate a component (FooModel) which implements the de.tud.kom.p2psim.api.churn.ChurnModel interface. This model should be specified in the xml-configurations file as follows:

<ChurnGenerator class="de.tud.kom.p2psim.impl.churn.DefaultChurnGenerator" start="0s" stop="$finishTime">
	<ChurnModel class="de.tud.kom.p2psim.impl.churn.FooModel"/>
</ChurnGenerator>

I think you can find a lot of example churn models in the package de.tud.kom.p2psim.impl.churn.

2. My problem is how does the churn model let each peer know what
type (longlasting etc.) they are?  I think this would make sense to put
in the NodeFactory but in the Kademlia implementation I could not find
anything there.

Good point, however the NodeFactory should be independent from the churn process. So, we split up functionalities, because not each simulation requires peer turnover. So, simply shift this functionality into the ChurnModel and everything should work fine.

3. Second problem is how does it let a peer know when to go online/offline?
Each OverlayNode implements the so called ConnectivityListener-Interface (de.tud.kom.p2psim.api.network.NetLayer), by default. As a consequence, each time the network-layer changes the status of a node (offline/online), the connectivityChanged(ConnectivityEvent ce)-function is invoked. I think that's exactly what you need.

Cheers,
Sebastian

We use OperationAnalyzer. We take at the end of the simulation the nodes out of the RoutingTable, where we store all the aktive nodes. The amount of neighbors of each peers are stored in each peer, so every peer gives us the amount of neighbors he has.
We get our information directly from the node, we don´t use the network layer our analyzation.
That´s why we dont´t understand the differences in the outputs.

Hi Robert,

> When we use :
"de.tud.kom.p2psim.impl.network.simple.SimpleNetFactory" "de.tud.kom.p2psim.impl.network.simple.SimpleStaticLatencyModel"
as net-Layer configuration the Analyzer gives use the amount of Neighbors, we expect for every Peer.
There is no Problem if there are not more then 100-200 Peers we simulate.
But if we want to simulate more peers, the simulator gets very slow. The simulation then takes a lot of time.

Which analyzer are you using for the simulations? As far as I know, there is no analyzer which records the amount of neighbours of each peer. Are you talking about overlay neighbours? If so, why do you analyze it in the network layer?

> There is no Problem if there are not more then 100-200 Peers we simulate.
But if we want to simulate more peers, the simulator gets very slow. The simulation then takes a lot of time.

It would be fine to get more information about the evaluative scenario you are running. Which components (specified in the xml file) are selected for the simulations?

Cheers,
Sebastian

Hi everybody,
I already talked to Yue, here is the answer I gave him:

You cannot actively wait until e.g. a result arrives and to continue at
that specific point in your code.
Waiting has to be implemented using the callback functionality.
Basically, in a method you can either send a request or react on in.
Typically you have an Operation like in the example
CheckLivenessOperation. When this Operation is actived you should send a
message to the peer to be pinged. Further you should define which method
to call if a result arrives. That's it for the momemt.

When the reply comes, its corresponding listener is called and you can
perform the tasks needed to be done. E.g. updating the status of the
contacted peer.

best regards,
 Kalman

Forwarded email from Yue Sheng:

Hello everybody,
I'm implementing the chord overlay for the simulator following the
document “How to create an overlay in PeerfactSim.KOM” and I have a
problem implementing the action of waiting.
For example:
I defined a simple operation called CheckLivenessOperation in my overlay
node, which checks if another overlay node is active or not. The
operation sends a request message via transport layer to the target node
and wait for a time, if it gets a reply in that time, then
operationFinished(true) will be call, else operationFinished(false) will
be called.

My problem is: For the caller of this operation, namely the overlay
node, after it calls CheckLivenessOperation.scheduleImmediately(), it
has to wait until the operation is finished, after that it can tell if
the target node is active or not. And I'm not sure how to let the node
wait. Until now I use the following way to wait for the result of an
operation:

Method in my overlay node:

public boolean checkLiveness(ChordContact target) {
ping = new CheckLivenessOperation(this, target, opListener);
ping.scheduleImmediately();
while( ! ping.isFinished() ) {
// busy waiting
}
return ping.isSuccessful();
}

Although I think the while() statement is not correct, but I have no
other idea at the moment.
Any help will be appreciated.
thanks!!!

Yes, it's the latest CVS that I am trying to build, just to be sure I 
double-checked now. The thing is that I get the same error in Eclipse 
too after importing the project:

Severity and Description	Path	Resource	Location	Creation Time	Id
The import de.tud.kom.p2psim.impl.util.vivaldi cannot be resolved	
PeerfactSim.KOM/test/de/tud/kom/p2psim	AllTests.java	line 319	
1207646789823	2885

The thing is (and I should have done this yesterday already before 
posting), there is no src/de/tud/kom/p2psim/impl/util/vivaldi 
directory. I checked the CVS on SourceForge with my browser:

http://peerfactsim.cvs.sourceforge.net/peerfactsim/PeerfactSim.KOM-Main/src/de/tud/kom/p2psim/impl/util/

Which seems to hold that directory. So I deleted the source and checked 
it out again. Now the vivaldi directory is there but I get different 
errors. I will take a closer look, see if I can solve them, and let you 
know if then all works ok.

Meanwhile, a suggestion: if you enter 
http://peerfactsim.sourceforge.net/ in the browser, you get an apache 
filesystem page. Until you have a public web page you want to upload 
there, you could simply upload a redirect index.html file, like this:

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" 
content="1;URL=http://sourceforge.net/projects/peerfactsim/">
</head>
</html>

Hi Lori and Sabastian,

I didn't check the log file. I just want to let you know we are using 
PeerFactSim in NetBeans and it works properly. At least for BitTorrent 
(that is what we are simulating).

Regards,
                Rubén.

Hi Lori,

That's interesting. Yesterday evening, it tried to compile it on Windows XP and MacOS as well. However, it was working on both operating systems. Did you check out the recent cvs version? When reading the log file, it looks like a package is missing containing the vivaldi file. 

And thanks for you feedback, of course one should also be able to build PeerfactSim outside of Eclipse :-)

Cheers,
Sebastian

Betreff: [Peerfactsim-developer] Build errors

Hi all,

I am trying to use the simulator without the Eclipse environment, on the following platform:

OS: Gentoo Linux x86, kernel 2.6.24-gentoo-r4
ant: Apache Ant version 1.7.0 compiled on April 7 2008
java: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_05-b13)

I check out CVS and then run ant. The output is the attached build.log file.

First, there are some non-critical encoding issues, mostly in the commmented text. But then there is a missing symbol error. I will try Eclipse too, but I wanted to let you know about this problem anyway, it would be nice to be able to quickly build outside as well ;)

Regards,
Lori
