The design and development of new network protocols, architectures, and technologies requires an evaluation phase where the researcher must provide empirical evidence for the performance of their contributions, potentially in comparison to existing solutions. In this context, network emulation has proven to be an attractive approach as it...

Emulation has become a popular approach for the validation and evaluation of network research. It provides researchers with a contained, customizable, and scalable testing environment, which can be easily packaged and published for potential readers to reproduce their results. However, as the network components are only virtual, emulation lacks...

Distributed Network emulators (e.g., Mininet Cluster Edition) have proven to be an attractive solution to perform extreme-scale network and systems evaluation on smaller-size testbeds and experiment platforms. They can provide contained, customisable, and scalable testing environments for researchers to evaluate their contributions and...

Distributed network emulators allow users to perform network evaluation by running large-scale virtual networks over a cluster of fewer machines. While they offer accessible testing environments for researchers to evaluate their contributions and for the community to reproduce its results, their use of limited physical network and compute...

Data center network monitoring can be carried out at hardware networking equipment (e.g. physical routers) and/or software networking equipment (e.g. virtual switches). While software switches offer high flexibility to deploy various monitoring tools, they have to utilize server resources, esp. CPU and memory, that can no longer be reserved...
