NS3TCG: NS3 Topology and Code Generator

Construction of Network Simulator version 3 (NS3) code and topology in easy and quick way are one of the main issues. In the world of computer networks, network simulator acts as a program to simulate network from which we can realize the behaviour of a network. In this modern era, the computer networks are getting complex which are becoming difficult to understand and to implement the network in NS3 platform. Our designed NS3 Topology and Code Generator (NS3TCG) tool can minimize the difficulty level as it can construct topology and generate NS3 code in C++ language, with minimum number of inputs about the network like, numbers of nodes, Internet Protocol (IP) address, Wireless or Wired or Mixed Network, delay rate, etcetera (etc). Our networking tool works mainly on two algorithms; one to dynamically generate NS3 code where as the other, to dynamically construct network topology. With the help of Graphical User Interference (GUI), we can understand the structure of any complicated network very easily and on the other hand, NS3 code generated by our tool can be further compiled and executed to obtain the simulation of the topology. As per our knowledge, NS3TCG is the first work in the direction of generating NS3 code and topology, which makes our networking tool unique and innovative.
