Simulator Tutorial 2
FreePastry's Direct Simulator (Using Latency Matrix)
Download the tutorial files: DirectTutorial.java MyApp.java, MyMsg.java into a directory called rice/tutorial/gtitm/.
Before completing this Tutorial, we recommend completing Simulator Tutorial of the FreePastry tutorial.
FreePastry's Simulator is a Discreet Event Simulator. The puropse of this tutorial is to show you how to use the GenericNetwork to use a latency matrix to more accurately simulate your application with FreePastry's Discreet Event Simulator. Changes: There is only 1 change to the code... the Netowork Topology, and a command line argument to specify the file name:
new GenericNetwork(env, new File(fileName))
The format of this file is a matrix of floats representing the table of latency values. It should be N lines with N floats on each line representing N latencies.
You should also specify the parameter: pastry_direct_gtitm_max_overlay_size if you want to provide an input file over 2000 nodes. Note that FreePastry will automatically accpet a smaller file, but to save memory, it will not read more than pastry_direct_gtitm_max_overlay_size lines in an input file.
If anyone has an example of how to use the GT-ITM Topology Generator to generate a latency matrix, please let me know so I can integrate it into this tutorial.
One other note. To create larger networks, it may be necessary to accelerate the simulator as you construct more nodes. This tutorial employs a simple trick to accomplish this:
// accelerate the simulation as we give it more work
simulator.setMaxSpeed(curNode+1);
Complie and execute this code as before, but this time provide a Matrix file. The tutorial directory includes this file which must be copied to the working directory to execute this tutorial.
