Collaborative Simulation for Education and Research

该USC-ISI奖项支持教育和研究合作模拟（CONSER）项目的工作。 CONSER系统涉及到两个目的的基础设施的开发：（a）支持网络协议开发和评估方面的研究活动，以及（B）网络协议和网络概念领域的教学。 基于一个协作仿真环境，CONSER旨在帮助理解复杂的操作环境中的协议行为，在一系列的交通条件，并在各种媒体。 该系统将涉及模拟和可视化支持，旨在帮助研究人员和学生的理解，从而在研究和教学环境中提供好处。 基于ns和nam的工作预计将受到研究界和工业界的好评。

This USC-ISI award supports work on a Collaborative Simulation for Education and Research (CONSER) project. The CONSER system involves development of infrastructure that addresses two purposes: (a) support for research activities in the development and evaluation of networking protocols, and (b) teaching in the areas of networking protocols and networking concepts. Based on a collaborative simulation environment, CONSER is intended to aid understanding of protocol behavior in complex operational environments, over a range of traffic conditions, and on a variety of media. The system will involve simulation and visualization support intended to aid researcher and student understanding, thus providing benefits in both research and teaching settings. Based on ns and nam, the work is expected to be well received by the research community and industry.
