Simulating agent based processing in an ADS using C++ SIM

Currently public networks have an enormous number of computers capable of providing many services. Autonomous mobile agents are being used to access their information sources. These agents are modeled in the context of network simulation as mobile network processes. The paper demonstrates that distributed mobile agents can be simulated effectively using C++ over CSIM. C++ over CSIM achieves the clarity and logic of agent based simulation for network services. Inheritance and specialization under object orientation allow the design and reuse of simulation objects. This combination facilitates rather straightforward simulation designs that are scalable, accurate, flexible and generalizable. The design for such large scale simulation is sketched and the run time behavior of the simulator is analyzed
