Block-oriented network simulator (BONeS)

Abstract: The Block-Oriented Network Simulator (BONeS) may be viewed as an integrated system that provides a complete graphical environment for the description and simulation of communications networks.There are many existing techniques for describing communications networks; including state transition diagrams, state transition tables, Petri networks, high level general purpose languages, and special purpose high level languages.Each of these techniques have their merits. However, none of these methods provide a an int… Show more

“…Each system is represented by an (M, N) pair, where M is the number of processing nodes in each cluster and N is the number of processors in each node. For example, the (4,2) system represents a cluster of four dual-processor SMPs.…”

“…High-fidelity modeling of the computer system components and simulation of the architectures are performed using the Block-Oriented Network Simulator (BONeS) [2] from Cadence Design Systems. BONeS provides a graphical interface for high-fidelity system modeling, an interactive simulator for debugging, a distributed simulation engine, and post-processing data tools for evaluation of results.…”

“…Similar component-port models have been proposed before (Ferenci, Perumalla, and Fujimoto 2001;Shanmugan and LaRue 1992). Actually, any component model that relies on ports as the only inter-component communication mechanism bears some resemblance with ours.…”

“…In the literature, we find the description of different toolkits dedicated to this field, as TOPNET [1], which is based on PROT net, a class of Petri nets; NETMOD [2], which is based on simple analytical models; BONeS [3], which is based on block-oriented modeling paradigm. On the other hand, our approach is based on queueing networks.…”
