= OverSim Usage =

== First steps with OverSim: ==

 * change into directory {{{OverSim-20070404/Simulations}}}

 * start OverSim by typing
{{{
../bin/OverSim
}}}

 * choose a simulation run (e.g. run 1: Chord)

 * press the ''Run'' button in [wiki:OMNeT++]'s main window

 * ... watch & enjoy ...

 * press the ''Stop'' button to pause simulation

 * end OverSim by closing [wiki:OMNeT++]'s main window[[BR]]
 (press ''Yes'' to invoke {{{finish()}}}-method call in all [wiki:OMNeT++] modules)

 * If you want to simulate large networks like the predefined run 6 invoke !OverSim without GUI:
{{{
../bin/OverSim -UCmdenv -r6
}}}

== Viewing statistics and editing parameters: ==

 * run
{{{
../bin/overStat.pl omnetpp.sca
}}}
 and
{{{
../bin/overStat.pl omnetpp.vec
}}}
 to view statistics[[BR]]
 (this evaluates {{{omnetpp.sca}}} and {{{omnetpp.vec}}} in the {{{Simulations/}}} subfolder,
 so {{{Simulations/}}} has to be your working directory)

 * edit {{{Simulations/omnetpp.ini}}} to change or define new simulation runs[[BR]]
 (default parameters are stored in {{{Simulations/default.ini}}}, parameters are described on the
 [/chrome/site/Documentation/index.html NEDdoc-pages])
