Description
Simulation is a widely used mechanism for validating the theoretical models of networking and communication systems. Although the claims made based on simulations are considered to be reliable, how reliable they really are is best determined with real-world implementation trials.
Simulation Technologies in Networking and Communications: Selecting the Best Tool for the Test addresses the spectrum of issues regarding the different mechanisms related to simulation technologies in networking and communications fields. Focusing on the practice of simulation testing instead of the theory, it presents the work of more than 50 experts from around the world.
Considers superefficient Monte Carlo simulations
Describes how to simulate and evaluate multicast routing algorithms
Covers simulation tools for cloud computing and broadband passive optical networks
Reports on recent developments in simulation tools for WSNs
Examines modeling and simulation of vehicular networks
The book compiles expert perspectives about the simulation of various networking and communications technologies. These experts review and evaluate popular simulation modeling tools and recommend the best tools for your specific tests. They also explain how to determine when theoretical modeling would be preferred over simulation.
This book does not provide a verdict on the best suitable tool for simulation. Instead, it supplies authoritative analyses of the different kinds of networks and systems. Presenting best practices and insights from global experts, the book provides you with an understanding of what to simulate, where to simulate, whether to simulate or not, when to simulate, and how to simulate for a wide range of issues.

Persons
Al-Sakib Khan Pathan earned his PhD in computer engineering in 2009 from Kyung Hee University, South Korea. He earned his BSc in computer science and information technology from Islamic University of Technology (IUT), Bangladesh, in 2003. He is currently an assistant professor in the computer science department at International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM), Malaysia. Until June 2010, he was assistant professor at the computer science and
engineering department in BRAC University, Bangladesh. Prior to holding this position, he worked as a researcher at the Networking Lab, Kyung Hee University, South Korea, until August 2009. His research interests include wireless sensor networks, network security, and e-services technologies. He is a recipient of several awards, including best paper awards, and has several publications in these areas. He has served as a chair, organizing committee member, and technical program committee member in numerous international conferences/workshops such as GLOBECOM, GreenCom, HPCS, ICA3PP, IWCMC, VTC, HPCC, and IDCS. He was awarded the IEEE Outstanding Leadership Award and Certificate of Appreciation for his role in the IEEE GreenCom'13 conference.
Dr. Pathan is currently an area editor of IJCNIS; editor of IJCSE, Inderscience; associate editor of IASTED/ACTA Press IJCA and CCS; guest editor of many special issues of top-ranked journals, and editor/author of ten books. One of his books has been included twice in Intel Corporation's Recommended Reading List for Developers, second half of 2013 and first half of 2014. Three other books are included in IEEE Communications Society's (IEEE ComSoc) Best Readings in Communications and Information Systems Security, 2013, and a fifth book is in the process of being translated from English to simplified Chinese. Also, two of his journal papers and one conference paper are included under different categories in IEEE Communications Society's (IEEE
