Significant Effect of Vital Rule of Simulators in Wireless Sensor Networks
<p>It is the requirement of the time, to simulate/emulate for analyzing the system. Therefore we must need some tools for this specific task. This paper is for encompassing the available tools for analyzing and evaluation purpose. Paper having all these exclusive information with detail are not available. We show ATEMU, Avrora, EmStar, J-Sim, NS-2, OMNeT++ and TOSSIM. We try to analyze the tools thoroughly. We define and discusss about the operation, functionality, advantages, disadvantages and constraints. These are the main stream superb simulation tools based on state of the art techniques. We explore on the basis of popularity, accessibility (open source), complexity, accuracy, scalability, extensibility and availability of various problems in homogenous and heterogenous WSN and other networks on different platforms and with or without using different scripting languages.</p>
