SWANS++ / News: Recent posts

The SWANS++ alpha version is available for immediate download. You can access it via CVS from this project or as a distribution from http://www.aqualab.cs.northwestern.edu/projects/swans++/

Note that this is an alpha release and is still undergoing testing.

If you have any extensions to JiST/SWANS that you would like to make publicly available (e.g., with a GNU license), I urge to you to submit this code to the SWANS++ project. I will collect the code, merge it into the JiST/SWANS source and place the unified code in a release package (and CVS repository). To submit code, please do so via the SWANS++ submission site located here:

JiST/SWANS developers:

* a fully-featured interactive runtime visualization tool
* fully integrated and enhanced STRAW mobility model
* support for multi-channel radios
* ... and much, much more

The target release date is the end of January, 2007. If you have robust code that you would like to contribute to this effort, please contact me directly.

A new wiki for the SWANS++ group has been posted at http://aqualab.cs.northwestern.edu/projects/swans++/. Please join and contribute to the JiST/SWANS development community!

The much-anticipated runtime visualizaiton tool for the SWANS simulator has been released as part of STRAW version 1.2.
