Hi Ahmed, In NS2, things happen very briefly in node. If you are working in a wired network, things happens in Simple link. For example, the queue is not associated with nodes (as in the physical world), but with the link. So you can't really find the utilization of the node.
But if you are interested in finding link utilization. You may find it from link throughput / link capacity. I blogged a series on how to post-process NS2 result. You can find link utilization computation example from the link below: http://www.ns2ultimate.com/post/3442965938 Best Wishes, Teerawat Issariyakul http://www.ns2ultimate.com/ http://www.facebook.com/pages/Teerawat-Issariyakul/358240861417 http://twitter.com/T_Bear http://www.t-issariyakul.blogspot.com http://www.ece.ubc.ca/~teerawat On Feb 22, 2011, at 10:13 AM, Ahmad wrote: > > Hi all, > Trying one more time just incase.
