= Welcome to the RoutingSim homepage =

RoutingSim is a simulation framework that allows the analysis of the algorithmic
behaviour of routing protocols in large-scale networks. To this end, it provides
network topologies, pre-calculated shortest paths, several network dynamic models (e.g,
catastrophic failure or weibull distributed lifetime churn). The intended audience
of RoutingSim are researchers who seek reproducible, scalable, and comparable simulation 
results independently from a specific type of network (e.g., ad-hoc networks, or sensor networks).

Currently RoutingSim only has only a extended variant of Virtual Ring Routing (eVRR) 
implemented. However, we're working on the portation many other protocols, like Distributed Compact 
Routing (Disco), or Dynamic Address RouTing (DART).

We are currently setting up the pages, if you need a quick tour of RoutingSim please visit 
the [wiki:doc documentation]

You are welcome to contribute to this project, add comments, and, discuss all things about
routing. We're seeking to make RoutingSim a community effort to turn current trends of routing 
routing protocols to practice and ignite futher research direction. If you are interested
being part of this development [wiki:contact contact] us!
