Information

POSITRON was implemented and tested with version 3.38 of NS-3, in a Ubuntu 22.04 Linux environment.

For its operation, prior installation of SQLite 3 and the YAML CPP library is required.

Installation and usage instructions are as follows.

Firstly, you should clone this repository using the Git tool

git clone https://github.com/ifpb/positron

After cloning the repository, it is recommended to install the dependencies

cd positron 
bash scripts/dependencies.sh

The installation should proceed according to the steps provided by NS-3 itself

./ns3 configure --enable-example --enable-tests

followed by

./ns3 build

Utilization

Once compiled, you can run POSITRON from the main.cc and input.yaml files in the scratch directory.

./ns3 run main 

Simply modify the input.yaml file to configure new simulation scenarios.

Examples of simulation parameters

./ns3 run "main --seed=79" 

./ns3 run "main --logging=true --tracing=true"

./waf run "main --balanced=true"
