Simcan2Fog Simulator and Framework
Simcan2Fog is an open-source model library for the OMNeT++ simulation environment. It provides users, cloud providers, computational nodes and other models for researchers and students working with fog computing simulations.
This framework takes INET as a base for communication behaviour and protocols which supports a wide class of communication networks, including wired, wireless, mobile, ad hoc and sensor networks. It contains models for the Internet stack (TCP, UDP, IPv4, IPv6, OSPF, BGP, etc.), link layer protocols (Ethernet, PPP, IEEE 802.11, various sensor MAC protocols, etc), refined support for the wireless physical layer, MANET routing protocols, DiffServ, MPLS with LDP and RSVP-TE signalling, several application models, and many other protocols and components. It also provides support for node mobility, advanced visualization, network emulation and more.
