“…To accommodate practical implementation considerations, a simulator that implements all layers of the network, from the application layer to the physical layer, is needed. We simulate our scheme as well as two baseline schemes by the OPNET network simulator, which implements all layers of the network, resulting in outcomes very close to practical implementations [13].…”

“…Tcl/Tk, OTcl, NS2, Tclcl, and other essential components are included in the NS2 software package. Tk is a graphical user development tool that may aid users in designing graphical interfaces in a visual environment; Tcl is very much an open-script language that is used to program NS2; OTcl is a Tcl/Tk-based object-oriented extension with its class structure [22]. The NS programming language, along with object-oriented simulator programming in C++ and the OTcl interpreter, is at the heart of this software bundle.…”

Link failure refers to the failure between two connections/nodes in a perfectly working simulation scenario at a particular instance. Transport layer routing protocols form an important basis of setting up a simulation, with Transmission Control Protocol and User Datagram Protocol being the primary of them. The research makes use of Network Simulator v2.35 to conduct different simulation experiments for link failure and provide validation results. In this paper, both protocols, TCP and UDP are compared based on the throughput of packets delivered from one node to the other constrained to the condition that for a certain interval of time the link fails and the simulation time remains the same for either of the protocols. Overall, this analysis is based on determining the performance of both protocols with a fixed packet size and bandwidth. This analysis, performed with the help of NS2 and XGraph, shows that the transport layer protocol, UDP acts better than TCP in terms of throughput. This opens the questions to other fellow researchers of how different metrics act in both the cases when a link failure occurs. In UDP, the throughput drops less as compared to the TCP at the time of the link failure regardless of if simulation was executed for different time periods i.e., 70,100,300,900 and 1000 seconds. The link failure interval is also varied from 10,15,20,40,350 and 440 seconds to generalize and validate the performance of the network during the interval.

Artırılmış Gerçeklik (AR), sanal içeriklerin gerçek dünya ile sorunsuz bir şekilde bütünleşmesine olanak tanıyan, akıllı telefon, tablet gibi el tipi görüntüleyiciler veya ön kameraya sahip VR başlıklar aracılığı ile görüntülenen bir teknolojidir. Bu teknolojinin en önemli özelliği soyut kavramları görselleştirmesidir. Birçok çalışma, TCP/IP ve OSI modellerinin, ayrıntılı soyut kavramlar ve protokoller içermesi nedeniyle veri iletişimlerinin son derece karmaşık olduğunu bildirmektedir. Farklı sistemleri birbirine bağlamak, iki uç nokta arasında veri akışı oluşturmak ve katmanlar arasında veri dönüşümleri yapmak bu karmaşıklıklardan sadece birkaçıdır. Bu çalışmada, TCP/IP ve OSI modelleri gibi öğrenilmesi zor olan soyut kavramların öğretiminde AR ortamların çözüm olup olmadığının belirlenmesine yönelik bir araştırma yürütülmüştür. Amaç, öğrencilerin TCP/IP ve OSI gibi kavramların temel bilgilerini öğrenebilecek ve ağ deneyimlerini iyileştirebilecek bir AR ağ tasarım ortamı geliştirmektir. Bu ortam, ağ düğümlerin zekice davrandığı ve IP adreslerin dinamik yönetildiği yeni bir oyun temelli mobil eğitim yöntemini temel almaktadır. Bu sayede kullanıcılar TCP/IP ve OSI modellerinin soyut kavramlarını mobil AR başlığı ile her yerde 3B, etkileşimli ve uygulamalı öğrenme fırsatı bulmuştur. Deneysel sonuçlar, somut arayüz etkileşimlerinin ve AR ortamların öğrenciler için faydalı bir öğretim aracı olduğunu göstermiştir.Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that allows virtual content to be seamlessly integrated with the real world, viewed via handheld viewers such as smartphones, tablets, or VR headsets with a front camera. The most important feature of this technology is that it visualizes abstract concepts. Many studies report that data communications are extremely complex because TCP/IP and OSI models contain elaborate abstract concepts and protocols. Connecting disparate systems, creating data flows between two endpoints, and performing data transformations between layers are just a few of these complexities. In this study, a research is conducted to determine whether AR environments are the solution for teaching abstract concepts that are difficult to learn such as TCP/IP and OSI models. The aim is to develop an AR network design environment in which students can learn the basics of concepts such as TCP/IP and OSI and improve their network experience. This environment is based on a new gamebased mobile training method in which network nodes behave intelligently and IP addresses are dynamically managed. In this way, users have the opportunity to learn the abstract concepts of TCP/IP and OSI models in 3D, interactive and hands-on with the mobile AR headset anywhere. Experimental results have shown that concrete interface interactions and AR environments are useful teaching tools for students.
