            Abstract : 
We introduce PlanetSim, a discrete event-based simulation framework for peer-to-peer overlay networks and services. It is implemented in Java and provides good qualities for both researchers and developers, such as a strong system development background, as well as modularity, flexibility and clarity on its design and implementation. All this is corroborated by the important community using and supporting PlanetSim.
