Abstract :
This paper presents NetSim-Steer, a runtime steering framework for network simulators. With this framework, users can specify execution constraints for the network protocols and network models. In addition to this, users can implement steering rules to be executed when a constraint is violated. These rules allow users to alter the parameters of the protocols/models during the simulation so that they stay within the boundaries of the constraints.
