Learning Outcomes

The main objective of this module is to teach participants the fundamental concepts of network simulation in an hands-on approach. Students will learn the basics of network simulation, validation of models and evaluation of simulation results in order to assess the performance of a network system. After the introduction, students will be able to directly apply the presented techniques using the OMNeT++ Simulator to build models, git as a tool for version management and collaborative work, and R to generate a meaningful evaluation from the simulation results. Participants of this course will be able to: * Assess the advantages and disadvantages of different simulation techniques and choose an appropriate method * Create simulation models for complex network systems * Manage a complex simulation model in a team * Statistically evaluate and visualize simulation results

Content

Simulation is one possibility (others are experiments or mathematical analysis) to evaluate the performance of systems which might even not be available in reality. This course offers the chance to get in touch with the network simulation framework OMNeT++. After getting a basic introduction to simulation and modeling, we will study a small example project using OMNeT++ to get to know the simulation environment. Finally, we will work in small groups of 2-3 people on interesting research-focused projects of the areas vehicular communication and wireless sensor networks.
