Re: [ns] [NS-ANS] Issue with ns2 running with .tcl file with tracI interface

2011-08-13 Thread Imran khan

Hi,

You need to start sumo server over the port which is specified in the tcl
file. Once the server is running, then run your tcl file. Further
information can be found here

[ns] NS-Users Q-process Guideline

2011-08-13 Thread Mariam A. Moustafa

Salam Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
Dears NS-Users

According to our discussion in the mail of  a subject "[VIP] Discussion", We
agreed on these guidelines to effectively manage the question's process on
this mailing list

Here is the rules: (please mention, if I forget a thing)
---

*1- To minimize the trivial question, the asker should search the archiving
first to find the answer else if doesn't exist, kindly pay some efforts and
time to google for the answer else send here!*
*
*
*2- The answer of elaborated questions will be sent for the all user not
only the asker with a tag [NS-ANS]*
*
*
*3- Homework and college's assignment are prevented to be solved here, only
if a guidance for a piece of work.*

That's all, hope to follow these rules for good utilizing this list, and
thanks a lot for all active members for participating in expressing this
guideline.


At the end, we would like to thank Mohit Tahiliani for start following the
rules on his reply "[ns] [NS-ANS]: how to change the node color with energy
consumption"

Thanks dears,
hope the best for all of you
Mariam


[ns] [NS-ANS]: how to change the node color with energy consumption

2011-08-13 Thread Mohit Tahiliani

Hello,

Node colors for Energy Model are defined in the following file:

Yes Itishi, you right "post complete solution after getting help from other
ns-users" is the best solution but actually we couldn't depend on morality,
so the guaranteed solution is to reply any answer for all, then the question

Yes Imran, "Having said that an organised NS2 mailing list is needed and
every person should take moral responsibility of notifying on mailing list
about the solution (s)he found for their NS2 problems." this is the point

but if we cannot depend on morality, as Leo suggests the answers should be
forward to all with a certain tag..

*No Individual answers*? with me? let's set the rule

Hi,

Adding to the Leo's point I would say that the main aim of this mailing list
is to guide NS2 users and help them solve their problems that they are
facing. It becomes very difficult when the students want their assignments
and projects done by other people. I have had fair share of mercy appeals
for such kindness, which I am not willing to do.
Having said that an organised NS2 mailing list is needed and every person
should take moral responsibility of notifying on mailing list about the
solution (s)he found for their NS2 problems.

Thanks Leo for your reply, the problem of the* trivial problem* may be due
to they are newbies or even as u mentioned, in fact we couldn't control
that, the asker of a trivial question will search the archiving, if find the
answer then good else if any could answer good else he will find another way
to find the answer. (the list will has a pool of silly questions consider
them them noise)

concerning the *"elaborate" questions* we need to keep their answers and
this is the issue...

I hope to have a list of famous* Q&A* for the trivial questions and a good
organized (using tags) for the *elaborate* questions

 use REPLY ALL to post the answer. We don't know whether the answer

 solve the solution. As for me, most of the time, I only give a partial
 answer, leaving the askers something to think of by themselves. This
 forces
 the askers not to rely entirely on anwerers. But again, NS2 mailing list
 exists on free-will only. We can't force people to do things (even if

I agree with all of you! There are only 2 or 3 active users in this list.
But I think that this problem is due to another problem that it's 
mandatory to solve: the stupid and trivial useless questions. For 
example, I've seen people asking again and again how to do something 
that you can just search in any simple tutorial.

When I see someone like this, I never answer his questions, because he 
domonstrate that haven't search anything.
By the way, I think this list is for more "elaborate" questions, so I 
answer that questions when I have the answer.

Anyway, there's no simple way to solve our first problem, because we can 
dedice that it's our responsability to answer, but we're only a few. 
Nevertheless, I will answer the list (as usually I do) in order to 
improve our list!

Regards!
Leo Sánchez

PS: sorry for my English, I'm not fluent and maybe some things could be 
misunderstood.

Hi,

I agree. I would be great if we follow this guideline.  I also have one more 
rule to add: "Put a tag [NS-ANS: ] in front  of the subject for the answer".

Re: [ns] [VIP] Discussion

2011-08-13 Thread Mariam A. Moustafa

As it is a free-will, we can agree on rules which enhance the asking
process!
we have two ways:
1- after his problem is solved the asker is responsible for forwarding the
detailed answer (only one detailed full answer).
2- those who answered even if a partial answer, send the answer to all not
in private. (so we will have many of partial answers by compiling them we
can get the full answer).
else this archiving is useless and becomes full of repeated questions with
no answers!
and if we lost the active members here, the list will die :)

it is just a suggestion! Thanks all, Mariam

Here is the way you obtain time in C++ and store the current time in a double

Scheduler &s = Scheduler::instance();

[ns] how receive CBR packets at my own agent????

2011-08-13 Thread Fahimeh Akbari

Hi 


I want to receive every CBR packets in my own agent and after extracting some 
data from that, forward it to it's destination.
So in my agent constructor definition, I used from following code:
/**/
SBC2::SBC2() : Agent(PT_CBR) {

    dup_flag_=0;
//    set_pkttype(PT_CBR);
    puts("SBC2::SBC2\n");
}
/**/

but It doesn't work and doesn't receive any packet. I tested "PT_UDP" and 
"PT_RTP" too. what I must to do. Please help me. I have so little time.


with thanks: F.Akbari
